Preparation
Chef’s notes
Cold ingredients:
We want the flakiest scones, so that means we’ll need cold butter, cold milk, and cold eggs. Most importantly, we want the cold butter to melt in the oven for optimal flakiness.
Do not over mix:
Over handling the dough will result in tough, dense, rubbery scones. Handle the dough as gently and as little as possible until it just comes together.
Use pumpkin puree:
Be sure to use pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling.
