Step 1
Preheat oven to 400 F. Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice in a large bowl.
Step 2
Cut your cold butter in small cubes, then use a pastry cutter or fork to cut it into the flour mixture until the pieces break up further. (It's okay for there to be chunks of butter in the dough - you want that)!
Step 3
In a separate bowl, whisk pumpkin puree, cream or half and half, egg, and vanilla.Add the egg mixture to the flour mixture until all ingredients are well incorporated, but don't overmix.
Step 4
Roll your dough into an oval shape on a floured surface so that it can be cut into 12 pieces, each about 1/2 an inch thick. Place all 12 scones on a non-stick pan. Bake for 10-15 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean from the center of a scone. I bake mine for 12 minutes.
Step 5
While your scones cool for a few minutes, make your glazes.
Step 6
Plain Glaze: Mix the powdered sugar and cream in a bowl. Start with 2 tbsp. of cream, and add up to one tablespoon more until you get the perfect glaze consistency.Pumpkin Spice Glaze: Mix the powdered sugar, pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, and cream in a bowl. Add more cream until you get the perfect glaze consistency.
Step 7
I like to add each glaze to a separate Ziploc bag and cut the corner of each bag to use for piping the icing. First, do a zigzag pattern of plain glaze on each scone while they're still a bit warm. Next, do a zigzag pattern of the pumpkin spice glaze. Feel free to spread the glazes on the scones or get creative with how you add them!
