Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Stir in the Parmesan cheese and sage (if using).
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, egg, and milk.
  6. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat it into a 3/4-inch thick round.
  8. Cut the round into 8 wedges.
  9. Place the wedges on the prepared baking sheet.
  10. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  11. Let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, you can add a pinch of nutmeg or cinnamon to the dry ingredients.
  • These scones are best served warm.
  • You can substitute cheddar cheese for Parmesan if desired.
