I LOVE scones. I love scones a little too much. I love scones to the point that I have to practice some SERIOUS will power to not eat WAY TOO MANY.
This spring my daughter and I attended a Tea Party at a local venue, and they served blueberry scones. I had to really practice good etiquette in teaching my daughter how to be polite and to just “take one” when at an event like that. I’m sure you can imagine that what I really wanted to do was to smuggle the whole plate out of the party in my purse.
But, it did motivate me to practice my scone making. So since it is starting to look like Fall here in Arkansas, I thought it was only appropriate to share my Pumpkin Scone recipe with you. Scones are meant to be a lightweight, bready, not sweet, and just a mouthful of buttery goodness. They make the perfect companion to a cup of coffee or hot tea. ENJOY!
Be sure to make these and then pour yourself a nice big cup of something hot and go sit outside and sip a little and snack a little.
