Pumpkin scones are absolutely mouthwatering and delicious! Filled with pumpkin flavor and drizzled with cinnamon icing, this is a breakfast option that you won't be able to pass up!
Preheat the oven to 400° and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
In a large bowl whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ground ginger, and ground cloves together.
Use a box grater to grate the cold butter into the dry ingredients. Use your hands to lightly mix the butter into the flour.
In a medium bowl, combine the cream, pumpkin puree, egg, and vanilla extract. Pour over the butter and dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Try to work the dough as little as possible, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface, and work into a ball. Flatten into an 8-9 inch disc. If desired, sprinkle with sugar crystals or coarse sugar. Use a sharp knife to cut into 8 equal pieces.
Arrange the pieces on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each one. Bake for 20-22 minutes, or until nice and golden brown. Allow cooling for at least 5-10 minutes before drizzling the icing over the top.
Icing
In a small bowl whisk together the powdered sugar, heavy cream, vanilla, and cinnamon. If it seems too thick, add 1 more tablespoon of heavy cream.
