Ingredients
For The Scones
- 2½ cups all-purpose flour
- ⅓ cup rolled oats
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 5 tablespoons cold butter cut in pieces
- ½ cup pumpkin flavored creamer or regular heavy cream, sugar free creamer is also okay to use
- ½ cup plain yogurt
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
For The Glaze
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
- pinch of nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons pumpkin flavored creamer or your favorite creamer
Instructions
- Prep. Preheat the oven to 425˚F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or Silpat and set aside.
- Mix the dry ingredients. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, oats, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt; whisk until completely incorporated.
- Add the butter. Rub the butter into the dry ingredients with your fingers, or with a pastry cutter. Rub until the mixture resembles fine crumbs.
- Add the wet ingredients. Make a well in the center and pour in the creamer, yogurt, and vanilla. Using a wooden spoon, combine all the ingredients just until the dough comes together.
- Knead the dough. Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface; flour your hands and knead the dough five times.
- Shape the scones. Shape the dough into a disk and cut it into 8 wedges.
- Bake. Transfer all the wedges to the baking sheet, leaving about 1-inch space between each scone. Bake the scones for 15 to 18 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Serve. Remove the pumpkin scones from the oven and let them cool for 2 minutes. Then, transfer the scones to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Make the glaze. Meanwhile, combine the powdered sugar, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and creamer; whisk until smooth. If the glaze is too thick, add more creamer; if the glaze is too thin, add more powdered sugar until you reach the desired consistency.
- Drizzle the scones with the glaze. Spoon and spread the glaze over each scone. Allow the glaze to set before serving.
