Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, salt, and coconut sugar.
Add the vegan butter to the dry ingredients and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, plant-based milk, and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently combine until a dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and shape it into a round disc about 1-inch thick.
Cut the disc into 8 wedges (like a pizza) and transfer the wedges to the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.
Bake the scones for 18-20 minutes, or until they are lightly golden and firm to the touch.
While the scones cool, prepare the glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, maple syrup, brown sugar, plant-based milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Once the scones have cooled slightly, drizzle the glaze over each scone. Allow the glaze to set before serving.
Serve the scones warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
