Best Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Scones Brown Sugar Glaze Recipes

CLASSIC PUMPKIN SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C). Adjust baking rack to the middle-low position. Line 1 or 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mat(s). If making mini scones, I use 2 baking sheets. Set aside.
• Whisk the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, and salt together in a large bowl. Grate the frozen butter (I use a box grater). Add the grated butter to the flour mixture and combine it with a pastry cutter, a fork, or your fingers until the mixture comes together in pea-sized crumbs. Set aside.
• Whisk 1/3 cup (75ml) heavy cream, the egg, blotted pumpkin (see note), brown sugar, and vanilla extract together in a small bowl. Drizzle it over the flour mixture and then mix it all together until everything appears moistened.
• With floured hands, work the dough into a ball as best you can and transfer onto a floured work surface. Press into a neat 8-inch disc and, with a very sharp knife, cut into 8 equal wedges. To make smaller scones, press dough into two 5-inch discs and cut each into 8 equal wedges. (Larger scones are pictured in this blog post.)
• Place scones at least 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet(s). Using a pastry brush, brush scones with remaining heavy cream and sprinkle with coarse sugar, if desired. (Gives a nice crunch!)
• Bake the larger scones for 20-25 minutes or until lightly browned. If you made 16 smaller scones, bake for 18-20 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes as you prepare the icing.
• In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and maple syrup together, whisking occasionally. Once the butter has melted, remove from heat and whisk in the sifted confectioners' sugar. Taste and add a pinch of salt if desired. Drizzle over warm scones.
• Scones are best enjoyed right away, though leftover scones keep well at room temperature or in the refrigerator for 2 extra days.

CHOCOLATE CHIP PUMPKIN SCONES

Steps:

• In a small bowl beat together the egg and water; set aside until needed.
• In a small bowl combine the cinnamon and granulated sugar; set aside until needed.
• Preheat oven to 400°(F). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
• In a large bowl combine the flour, mini-chocolate chips, salt, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and pumpkin pie spice; mix well; set aside.
• Cut the butter into small cubes (or use a cheese grater to shred it) then quickly work it into the flour mixture (using a pastry cutter or two forks) until it resembles a coarse meal.
• In a medium-sized bowl whisk together the egg, pumpkin puree, and milk; pour into the flour and butter mixture and using a fork, gently stir everything together until just moistened.
• Pour the shaggy dough out onto a clean, well floured work surface. Using your hands, shape the dough into an 8-inch circle. Cut the dough into 8 wedges and carefully transfer them to the prepared sheet.
• Lightly brush each scones with the egg wash, then sprinkle each one generously with cinnamon sugar.
• Bake scones for 18-20 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden brown. Cool scones for 10 minutes on the tray, then serve warm!

• In large bowl, beat butter and 1/2 cup granulated sugar with electric mixer on low speed, or mix with spoon. Add Bisquick mix, pumpkin pie spice and pumpkin; beat until combined. Stir in chocolate chips.
• On surface sprinkled with Bisquick mix, shape dough into 1- to 1-1/2-inch-thick round. Cut into 8 wedges; place on cookie sheet. Brush with whipping cream; sprinkle evenly with 1 tablespoon granulated sugar.

PUMPKIN WHITE CHOCOLATE CHIP SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat and prepare pan. Preheat your oven to 400oF. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mat.
• Combine dry ingredients. In a mixing bowl, whisk together all purpose flour, brown sugar, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice and salt.
• Cut in butter. Using your fingertips, two knives, or a pastry blender, cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the butter cubes are pea-sized. Stir in the white chocolate chips with a spatula.
• Mix wet ingredients together. In a measuring cup or small mixing bowl, stir together the eggs, pumpkin, and vanilla.
• Add wet ingredients. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and stir in the wet mixture. Stir to combine until a shaggy dough forms. I like to use my hands at the end of the mixing to get all the flour incorporated.
• Shape and cut the scones. Empty the bowl onto a lightly floured surface. Knead the dough lightly to bring the mixture together. Pat the dough into a 8-inch circle. Using a sharp knife cut the circle into 8 triangle wedges. Place scones onto prepared cookie sheet, about 2 inches apart. Freeze for 30 minutes (or place in the refrigerator for 1 hour).
• Bake The Scones. Brush the tops of the scones with a little milk or heavy cream and sprinkle on coarse sugar (optional). Bake for 20-22 minutes until golden brown. Remove from the oven, cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer and cool on a cooling rack.
• Make the glaze. In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the glaze ingredients.. Adjust the consistency if needed. Drizzle over scones before serving.
