Description
This recipe uses the creaming method. The way my Grandma always made them.
Method
Step 1 of 11
Beat butter on low speed until soft.
Step 2 of 11
Add sugar and beat well on medium speed.
Step 3 of 11
Mix through pumpkin and egg. Mix until well combined. (It doesn't matter if the batter has small lumps, this helps with the finished scone)
Step 4 of 11
Add milk and mix through.
Step 5 of 11
Add flour and mix gently. (I usually use a wooden spoon or spatula at this point to avoid overmixing and making the dough tough)
Step 6 of 11
Turn onto a floured surface and knead lightly. (Once again taking care not to overwork the dough).
Step 7 of 11
Gently press the dough to about 3 cm thick and cut out with scone cutter (about 5 or 6 cm) or glass dipped in flour.
Step 8 of 11
Place on tray lined with baking paper and bake for 15 mins. Check, and if required, cook for another few mins.
Step 9 of 11
Preheat oven to 200C.
Step 10 of 11
When cooked, remove from tray and place into a tea towel on a cooling rack. Wrap scones in tea towel until cool. Or allow to cool for ten minutes and consume.
Step 11 of 11
Store in airtight container for a few days, or freeze until required.
