Starbucks Copycat Pumpkin Scones

These copycat scones are so easy to make and they’re a million times tastier too! Thank you Dan Delicious

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup brown sugar, packed
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, cut into cubes
1/2 cup pumpkin puree
3 tablespoons milk
1 large egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

For the glaze:
1 cup confectioners’ sugar
2 tablespoons milk

For the Spiced Glaze:
1 cup confectioners’ sugar
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
Pinch of nutmeg
2 tablespoons milk

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. 
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat 
  • Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, cloves, ginger, nutmeg, baking soda and salt. 
  • Add cold butter, using your fingers to work the butter into the dry ingredients until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  • In another bowl, whisk together pumpkin puree, milk, egg and vanilla. 
  • Pour mixture over dry ingredients 
  • Stir using a rubber spatula until a soft dough forms.
  • Working on a lightly floured surface, knead the dough 3-4 times until it comes together. 
  • Using a rolling pill, roll the dough into a 10- by 7-inch rectangle, about 1-inch thick. 
  • Using a large knife or a pizza cutter, cut the rectangle in half lengthwise, then cut into 2 even pieces crosswise, making four rectangles. 
  • Then cut each each rectangle into two triangles, making 8 triangles
  • Place scones onto prepared baking sheet. 
  • Place into oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • To make the glaze, combine confectioners’ sugar and milk. 
  • Whisk until smooth. 
  • If the glaze is too thick, add more milk as needed; set aside. 
  • To make the spiced glaze, combine confectioners’ sugar, cinnamon, cloves, ginger, nutmeg and milk. Whisk until smooth; set aside.
  • When the scones are done, cool for 10 minutes and spoon the glaze on each scone before drizzling with spiced glaze.
  • Allow glazes to set before serving.
