PUMPKIN SCONES
|
 |
 |
 |
1 cup cold mashed cooked pumpkin 2 cups self raising flour 1 egg 1/2 cup sugar 1 tablespoon butter
Cream butter and sugar, add beaten egg, then pumpkin and sifted flour. Turn onto lightly floured board, knead lightly and roll out. Cut with scone cutter, place on a lightly greased tray and bake in moderately hot oven for 15 minutes.
Do not roll the dough too thin, it should be at least 10 cm (1/2") thick. If it is too thin, the scones will not rise properly, and will be tough and biscuit-like.
I usually wet the tops of the uncooked scones with a little milk just before putting them in the oven.
A scone cutter is a round cookie cutter about 50 cm (2") in diameter. I have often used a glass as a substitute. My mother cuts the dough with a knife into similar sized squares, as it saves re-rolling the dough after cutting rounds.
