Date And Spice Pumpkin Scones Recipes

Steps:

• Turn dough out onto a well-floured surface and knead gently 10 times. Roll or gently pat into a 9x6-inch rectangle. Cut dough into 6 squares. Cut each square in 1/2 diagonally, making 12 triangles.
• Place the dough triangles 2 inches apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Melt remaining tablespoon of butter and brush over scones. Sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon sugar.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a scone comes out clean, 10 to 12 minutes.

Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. , Turn onto a floured surface; knead 10 times. Divide dough in half. Pat each portion into an 8-in. circle; cut each into 8 wedges. Separate wedges and place 1 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Brush with remaining milk. , Bake at 400° for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Remove to wire racks; cool for 10 minutes. Combine the glaze ingredients; drizzle over scones. Serve warm.

Steps:

• For the scones: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a baking mat or parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, baking powder and pumpkin pie spice. Stir to combine. Add the butter pieces, then use a pastry cutter to work the butter and dry ingredients together until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
• In a second bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, cream and eggs. Pour into the flour mixture, stirring gently, until it all comes together into a dough.
• Turn the dough out onto a cutting board or floured surface and use your hands to press it into a 1/2-inch-thick rectangle about 15 inches by 3 inches. Cut into 12 equal triangular wedges.
• Transfer the wedges to the prepared baking sheet, brush the tops with the extra cream and bake until poufy, set and just barely golden, 20 to 23 minutes. Allow to cool completely.
• For the icing: Sift the powdered sugar, then combine with the coffee and butter in a large bowl. Make sure the icing is thick but still pourable; add a splash more coffee if needed to thin.
• Spoon a very generous amount of the icing onto each scone and sprinkle each with the pumpkin pie spice. Allow the icing to set, about 10 minutes. The scones can be served at once or stored in airtight container at room temperature for 1 to 2 days.

In another bowl, whisk together cream, egg, and pumpkin; stir into flour mixture just until a dough forms but is still crumbly. Pat into a 6-inch round on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

• Bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Transfer sheet to a wire rack; let cool completely.
• Stir together remaining 1 tablespoon melted butter, pinch of salt, confectioners' sugar, and 2 tablespoons maple syrup until smooth. If glaze is too thick, add up to 1 tablespoon more maple syrup, 1 teaspoon at a time. Dip tops of scones in glaze; transfer to same sheet and allow glaze to set 30 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Put the flour in a bowl and coarsely grate in the butter (dipping the butter into the flour can make it easier to grate; do this as often as you need). Use a butter knife to stir the butter into the flour, then mix in the sugar and spice.
