Ingredients

  • 430 g All-Purpose Flour
  • 18 g Baking Powder
  • 2 g Baking Soda
  • 80 g Sugar
  • 8 g Salt
  • 1 tsp Cinnamon
  • 1 tsp Ginger
  • ¼ tsp Nutmeg
  • ½ tsp Allspice
  • ½ tsp Cloves or 3 ¼ tsp Pumpkin Spice
  • 230 g Butter cold
  • 120 g Cream
  • 40 g Sour Cream
  • 120 g Pumpkin Puree
  • 20 g Maple Syrup

Maple Glaze:

  • Powdered Sugar around 30g
  • Maple Syrup adjust amount to desired consistency

Instructions

  • Take the butter straight from the fridge and grate it on the large holes of a box grater. Stick it back in the fridge while you prepare the other ingredients.
  • In a bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice, and cloves (or pumpkin spice).
  • In another bowl, mix together the cream, sour cream, pumpkin puree, and maple syrup until well combined.
  • Take the grated butter from the fridge and mix it with the dry ingredients.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. The mixture should form a slightly sticky dough with small chunks of butter.
  • Lay out a sheet of plastic wrap and shape the dough into a rectangle about 1 inch (2.5cm) thick. Wrap the dough tightly in the plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Remove the chilled dough from the refrigerator and cut it into your desired scone shapes. For best results, freeze the shaped scones for at least 2 hours before baking. This will help them retain their shape.
  • Place the frozen scones on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with cream.
  • Bake the scones in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes or until they turn golden brown.
  • While the scones are cooling, prepare the maple glaze. In a bowl, mix powdered sugar with maple syrup. Adjust the amount of maple syrup based on the desired consistency of the glaze. Stir until smooth.
  • Once the scones have cooled, drizzle the maple glaze over the top of each scone.
  • Enjoy!
