Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 0.75 cup Pumpkin puree
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar
- 0.25 cup Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon (for filling)
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar (for filling)
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted, for filling)
- 0.75 cup Powdered sugar (for glaze)
- 1 tablespoon Milk or cream (for glaze)
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract (for glaze)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
Add the cold, cubed butter into the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, brown sugar, heavy cream, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and shape it into a rectangle about 8 inches by 12 inches.
In a small bowl, mix the cinnamon and brown sugar for the filling. Brush the melted butter over the dough, then sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly across the surface.
Roll the dough up tightly from the long side, then gently press it down to flatten slightly, creating a log about 1 inch thick.
Cut the dough into 8 triangles (or circles if preferred) and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the scones are golden around the edges and cooked through. Allow to cool slightly.
For the glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk or cream, and vanilla extract until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the slightly cooled scones.
Serve warm and enjoy your Pumpkin Cinnamon Roll Scones!
