Ingredients
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup white sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 6 tablespoons cold, unsalted butter, cut into pieces
- ½ cup pumpkin puree
- ⅓ cup buttermilk
- ⅓ cup toasted pine nuts
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, or more as needed
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon milk
- 1 teaspoon white sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Whisk together 1 3/4 cup flour, 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl until combined. Mix butter into flour mixture using a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Make a well in the center of the flour-butter mixture. Stir in pumpkin puree, buttermilk, and pine nuts until just combined.
- Sprinkle a work surface with 2 tablespoons flour. Turn out dough onto the floured work surface. Shape into a rectangle about 1 inch thick. Fold the rectangle in thirds, sprinkle with more flour as needed, and flatten to about 1 inch thick. Repeat 2 more times. Cut final rectangle into 6 equally-sized squares. Cut each square into triangles and transfer the scones to the prepared baking sheet.
- Whisk egg and milk together in a small bowl. Lightly brush the top of each scone with egg wash. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon sugar over scones.
- Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Make a simple glaze for these scones by whisking together1 teaspoon milk, 2 tablespoons confectioners’ sugar, and 2 teaspoons maple syrup until smooth. You may need to add some more milk or sugar, depending on how thick you want the glaze.

I made these today and substituted pepitas for the pine nuts. So good
Very easy, very tasty, I will use green pumpkin seeds next time, instead of pine nuts, maybe add pumpkin spice?
Very soft and flaky. Not crumbly. I added his pumpkin spice recipe to the dry ingredients. It was delicious!
Very good!
This recipe makes a really nice scone. I did add a teaspoon of cinnamon, since I can’t make a pumpkin recipe without cinnamon. Delicious on a cool fall morning with a cup of tea.
Yummy and easy to make! Family favorite
Excellent! Followed base directions omitting pine nuts, instead added candied ginger & pumpkin pie spice. Next day microwaved a few seconds and still delicious!
Followed this recipe and the “pat/fold 3X” technic shown on the video and these scones are the best!! I forgot the nuts and they’re not missed! My husband and I tested them straight from the oven and decided, why mess with the best by using maple glaze…so we’re eating them as is. Thank you Chef John for a terrific fall treat!
Delicious, moist, definitely my family love it!!!
Made this twice. First time I thought I misread the flour and shorted a 1/4 cup. Really wet. Almost unworkable. Finally got enough flower in to fold and cut. Second time I know I started with the amount recommended, but still really wet and added a lot of flour while working it just to be able to fold and cut. Next time I will start with 2 cups of flour just to save time. About the pine nuts….who keeps pine nut on hand? No one likes them anyway. Just skip them….or use whatever you have. The glaze taste good. Would recommend doubling the sugar to get a more substantial glaze. As directed it so thin as it soaks in to the biscuit…so not really a glaze…oh think i will just go with the whole stick of butter next time as well…yum!
Mine came out tough. Maybe because I turned it too often? I would try again but not turn it. This recipe makes very small triangles …I would not cut it into as many pieces so the portion size is like what you buy in cafes.
Beautiful, delicious! I’d give more stars if I could!
Pumpkin scones came out great and was not hard to make. I added pumpkin pie spice. Topped with lemon glaze instead of maple because that’s what I had. Delish and filled the house with warm pumpkin aroma. Will definitely make again soon.
This recipe definitely needs some type of help with either pumpkin spice or ? The texture was good but there was no flavor. I pretty much tasted flour. I will make these again and add some pumpkin spice so it will at least have more flavor. I followed the recipe exactly how it is written,
I was surprised that the recipe didn’t as for any of the usual pumpkin recipe spices so I added Allspice (and chocolate chips) to the second batch and it turned out that these were pretty good additions. The first batch was good but I think the add-in’s gave it way more flavour and a bit of chocolate never hurts!
I have made these countless times. Due to allergies, at home I substitute almond milk and vinegar for the buttermilk and have substituted other oils for the butter with good results. Whether I make these as they are written or with substitutes, I have never had them last more than one day and have had request after request for the recipe!
I made the recipe but forgot to add ginger, but I was thrilled with how moist and tasty these scones are! Thanks to Starbucks for not having their version available in several stores near me this week. I will never buy them from Sbux again! These were easy to make and SO good. I wouldn’t change a thing. Some reviewers made 1/2 of the icing, but I really like the icing sweetness so I made the whole recipe and thought it was the perfect amount of icing.
A few things…. 1) don’t skip the egg wash. It adds great texture 2) I like my scones a little sweeter so next time I will either add sugar or make icing instead of just sprinkling sugar on top 3) they weren’t very “pumpkiny” despite me adding 1/2 tsp of pumpkin pie spice. I’ll be adding more of that as well.
I was left Home Alone so I baked these incredibly sinfully delicious scones. The maple glaze sends it just over the top. Chef a John is just my go to guy. Always great.
Very nice recipe. Scones are really easy to make and very light in texture, which I like a lot. Didn’t use pine nuts and they are still delicious. Will be eating them with jam instead of glaze. Thank you for sharing.
This recipe is not a scone but a biscuit. It was an okay biscuit but lacked spice needed for the pumpkin
