Ingredients

• 3 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Pumpkin spice
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.75 cup Unsalted butter, cold and cubed
• 0.5 cup Pumpkin puree
• 0.25 cup Heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon Orange zest
• 1 cup Powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons Orange juice

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, pumpkin spice, and salt.

Step 3

Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

In a separate small bowl, mix the pumpkin puree, heavy cream, vanilla extract, and orange zest until smooth.

Step 5

Add the wet ingredients to the flour mixture, gently folding until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the dough to about 1/2-inch thickness. Use cookie cutters to cut out your desired shapes and place them on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 7

Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just lightly golden. Allow the scone cookies to cool completely on a wire rack.

Step 8

Meanwhile, prepare the orange glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar and orange juice until smooth.

Step 9

Once the scones are cool, drizzle the orange glaze over each scone or decorate as desired. Let the glaze set for a few minutes before serving.
