Are you looking for a delightful breakfast treat to enjoy during the cozy autumn mornings? Look no further! In this guide, we will show you how to prepare easy sweet pumpkin scones that are perfect for a warm and satisfying morning tea.
To get started, gather the following ingredients:
3 1/2 cups self-raising flour
80g softened butter
1/4 cups milk
1 butternut pumpkin
2 tsp cinnamon
2 tsp nutmeg
2 tsp all spice
2/3 cup white sugar
Preheat your oven to 180°C fan-forced and line a baking tray.
Halve the butternut pumpkin, remove the seeds, and pierce the flesh with a fork about 20 times on each half.
Drizzle the pumpkin halves with oil and place them on the baking tray. Bake for approximately 30 minutes or until the pumpkin is soft. Let it cool.
Scoop out the cooled pumpkin flesh and mash it in a bowl until smooth.
In a separate mixing bowl, combine the self-raising flour, softened butter, milk, cinnamon, nutmeg, all spice, sugar and the mashed pumpkin.
Gently mix the ingredients until a soft dough forms.
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and pat it into a round shape.
Use a cookie cutter to cut out scones and place them on the lined baking tray.
Bake the scones in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until they are golden brown.
