Basic Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, cane sugar, brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, and salt. Whisk to combine.
- Add the cold diced butter and use your hands to pinch the flour and butter together until the butter is in small chunks. Then, press the dough/butter between your palms to create flat pieces.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the egg, vanilla extract, milk, heavy cream, and pumpkin puree. Pour this mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until almost combined but not completely.
- Dump the dough onto a floured surface. Flour your hands and gently press the dough down. Use a bench scraper to lift half the dough and fold it, gently pressing down and incorporating some flour. Re-flour the surface as needed. Fold the dough over another 4-5 times.
- Shape the dough into a disk and pat down to a thickness of 1" - 1 ¼”. Flour a sharp knife and cut into 8 triangles.
- Brush the tops of the scones with milk. Place each piece on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes.
- Stir together the powdered sugar and maple syrup to create the glaze. It should run freely from a spoon but still be somewhat thick; add a few drops of water if it is too thick.
- Pull the scones from the oven and cool completely before drizzling on the glaze.
