Starbucks Pumpkin Scone Recipes

PUMPKIN SCONES {STARBUCKS COPYCAT}

Steps:

• For the scones:
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a food processor pulse together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, brown sugar and granulated sugar until well blended (if you don't have a food processor you can whisk by hand in a large mixing bowl, then cut in butter with a pastry cutter). Add butter and pulse mixture several times to cut butter into mixture (large pieces of butter should no longer be visible). Pour mixture into a large mixing bowl and create a well in center.
• In a bowl whisk together chilled pumpkin puree, buttermilk, egg, vanilla extract and honey. Pour mixture into well in flour/butter mixture. Stir mixture with a wooden spoon to incorporate, then knead in bowl (or on work surface) by hand several times to bring mixture together. Dust a work surface with flour then invert dough onto surface. Pat and shape dough into an even 8-inch round. Using a large knife, slice into 8 equal wedges (dust knife with flour as needed while cutting, it will be fairly sticky).
• Transfer scones to a Silpat or parchment paper lined baking sheet. Brush tops with 1 Tbsp half and half then bake in preheated oven 13 - 15 minutes until tops are golden brown and toothpick inserted into center comes out clean. Transfer to a wire rack and cool 10 minutes (no longer) before spreading with glaze.
• For the glaze:
• In a mixing bowl whisk together powdered sugar and half and half, adding more half and half as needed to reach desired consistency (it should be fairly thick not runny). Spoon and spread mixture scones to evenly coat tops (use all of it). Let glaze set at room temperature.
• For the pumpkin glaze:
• In a mixing bowl (I just used the one from the glaze above without cleaning out) whisk together powdered sugar, pumpkin puree, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and half and half. Transfer mixture to a small Ziploc bag, seal bag, cut a small tip from corner and drizzle mixture over tops of scones. Allow icing to set. Best served day prepared.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425°F. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray or line with parchment paper. Give it a light dusting of flour on top of that.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together dry ingredients- flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and ginger.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin, half and half cream and egg.
• Use a pastry cutter or two knives to cut the butter into the dry ingredients. Continue cutting until the mixture resembles fine crumbs. (You may also use a food processor for this step. Pulse until the mixture resembles fine crumbs).
• Add the dry ingredients to the pumpkin mixture and stir until the dough comes together. The dough will be wet- just go ahead and sprinkle a little more flour into the dough until it's easier to handle (you'll be working in 1/4 to 1/3 cup additional flour to get the right consistency). Remember, you want it to be somewhat sticky, and that's okay- but you also don't want it to stick to the baking sheet. Pat out the dough onto the lightly floured baking sheet and form it into a 1-inch thick rectangle that is about 9-inches long and 5-inches wide. Use a large knife or a pizza cutter to slice the dough in half horizontally. Cut 5 triangles on one side and 5 on the other. Gently pull the triangles apart, leaving about ½-inch space between each one.
• Bake 14 to 16 minutes on the prepared baking sheet. The scones should begin to turn light brown.
• When the scones are cool, use a knife to cut them apart and then pull them apart so that they are ready for the icing.
• Prepare the icing by whisking the icing ingredients together in a medium bowl. Whisk until smooth. Spoon the icing into a zip baggie and snip the corner. Squeeze the baggie and drizzle the icing over each scone and allow the icing to set before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with a silpat or parchment paper. Set aside.
• To a large mixing bowl, add the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves. Mix until combined.
• Plop in the coconut oil and, using a pastry blender (or two butter knives or your hands), work the coconut oil into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
• To a medium bowl, add the pumpkin puree, coconut milk, and egg. Whisk together.
• Pour the wet ingredients over the dry and, with a wooden spoon or spatula, mix JUST until it starts to come together. Turn the mixture out onto a clean surface prepped with a sprinkle of flour to help prevent sticking. Finish mixing and shape the dough into an approximately 1-inch thick, 7-inch by 7-inch square. It should be a bit wet but not overly sticky - add a bit more flour if it is.
• Cut the square in half and then each half into three rectangles.
• Transfer the rectangles to your baking sheet.
• Bake about 15 minutes, until puffed, lightly browned on top, and - I feel silly describing this - but how I really know is when they look a bit dry when you peer into the little cracks.
• Remove from oven and transfer to a wire rack. Let cool completely.
• Now glaze! In a small bowl, mix together the powdered sugar, water, and vanilla. Just keep stirring, just keep stirring, until the icing is a spreadable consistency. If it's too thick, add a few more drops of water. If it's too thin, add more powdered sugar. Transfer three tablespoons of the icing to a small bowl and set aside - this will be used for the cinnamon icing.
• Use a pastry brush to liberally spread the icing over the scones. If it seems a bit messy/thick at first, don't worry - it'll smooth on out and look divine momentarily.
• Now make the cinnamon icing. Add cinnamon and turmeric to the three tablespoons of reserved icing and mix well. Transfer to a plastic baggie and squeeze the icing to one corner. Snip off a tiny bit of the corner and squeeze the glaze over the top of the scones.
• Enjoy now or let sit for a bit longer to let the glaze harden.
• Scones keep well at room temperature for 3-4 days, though they definitely don't last that long around here.

Steps:

• Scones:.
• Sift the flour, sugar, baking powder and spices into a bowl and set aside. Whisk together the pumpkin puree, egg and heavy cream and set aside. Add the cold cubed butter to the dry ingredients and mix together with your fingertips until the butter is pea-sized. Add the wet ingredients and mix until just combined, making sure not to overwork the dough. On a work surface, pat the dough into a circle about 2 inches thick and cut out six equal wedges. Place on a baking sheet covered with parchment and brush the tops with heavy cream. Bake in a 350 degree oven for about 20 minutes, turning once during baking. Cool on a wire rack. Once the scones are cool, ice the scones with the vanilla icing first, then drizzle the cinnamon icing on top. Scones are best enjoyed fresh baked but will keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
• Icing:.
• Mix together sugar, milk and vanilla until smooth. Reserve a 1/4 of the icing, mix with cinnamon powder and set aside. Ice the scones with a layer of the vanilla icing first, then drizzle the cinnamon icing on top.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees, F. Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg, 1/4 teaspoon cloves, and 1/4 teaspoon ginger in a large bowl. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together pumpkin, half-and-half, and egg. Cut butter into cubes, then add it to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry knife or a fork to combine butter with dry ingredients. Continue mixing until no chunks of butter are visible. You can also use a food processor. Pulse butter into dry ingredients until it is the texture of cornmeal or coarse sand. Fold wet ingredients into dry ingredients, then form the dough into a ball. Pat out dough onto a lightly floured surface and form it into a 1-inch thick rectangle that is about 9 inches long and 3 inches wide. Use a large knife or a pizza wheel to slice the dough twice through the width, making 3 equal portions. Cut those three slices diagonally so that you have 6 triangular slices of dough. Bake for 14 to 16 minutes on a baking sheet that has been lightly oiled or lined with parchment paper. Scones should begin to turn light brown. While scones cool, prepare plain glaze by combining ingredients in a medium bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed. Mix until smooth. When scones are cool, use a brush to paint a coating of the glaze over the top of each one. As that white glaze firms up, prepare spiced icing by combining ingredietns in another medium bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed. Drizzle this thicker icing over each scone and allow the icing to dry before serving (at least 1 hour). A squirt bottle works great for this, or you can drizzle with a whisk.
