1/3 cup of brown sugar

1 teaspoon of cinnamon

1 teaspoon of baking powder

¾ teaspoon of ground cloves

½ teaspoon of ground ginger

½ teaspoon of ground nutmeg

½ teaspoon of baking soda 

¼ teaspoon of salt 

1 stick of unsalted butter, cut into cubes 

½ cup of pumpkin puree

3 tablespoons of milk

1 large egg

2 teaspoons vanilla extract 

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees

In a large bowl, combine flour, and all dry ingredients

Add cold butter into dry ingredients, use your fingers to combine butter into mixture. (Should resemble crumbs)

In a separate bowl whisk together pumpkin, milk, egg, and vanilla. Pour mixture over dry ingredients and stir using a rubber spatula until soft dough forms.  

On a lightly floured surface, knead the dough 3-4 times until it comes together. Use a rolling pin to roll out scone dough. Use a pizza cutter to cut dough like a pizza, you should have 8-10 triangles. 

Place the triangles on a non-stick cookie sheet.

Bake 10-12 minutes, or until toothpick comes out clean. 

Cool for 10 minutes before drizzling with glaze.
