    Gently spiced scones are the perfect way to use up leftover roast pumpkin – or simply an excuse to make extra!

    Ingredients

    • 1/2 cup roasted or steamed pumpkin, pureed or mashed (130g)
    • 2 Tbs brown sugar
    • 2 Tbs So Good™ Soy Milk or Unsweetened Almond Milk

    3. Step 3

      Pour pumpkin mixture into the well. Stir, using a flat-bladed knife and a cutting motion, until a shaggy dough forms.

      Use two large spoons to scoop dough into 10 portions, and place on the prepared tray. Sprinkle with coarse sugar, if using.
    5. Step 5

      Bake 18 - 20 minutes until golden and cooked through. Cool on tray 5 mins, serve warm. Scones are best on the day they are baked.

    Tips

    • Mixed spice can be replaced with 1 tsp ground cinnamon, plus 1/2 tsp ground ginger, plus a pinch of grated nutmeg.
    • We recommend using a gluten free flour blend that contains Xanthan Gum (sometimes listed in the ingredients as 415). If your blend does not contain Xanthan, we suggest adding 1/4 teaspoon Xanthan Gum powder to the flour in step 2.
