These are so yummy and really easy to make, not like a traditional scone where you need to roll and cut. This is Lady Flo’s pumpkin scone recipe.
Recipe type: Scones
Serves: 24

Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • ½ cup sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup mashed pumpkin (cold)
  • 2 cups SR flour

Instructions
  1. Beat together butter, sugar and salt with electric mixer
  2. Add egg and pumpkin, mix
  3. Stir in the flour
  4. Spoon large heaped spoons of dough onto trays, giving enough room for spreading during cooking
  5. Bake in a very hot oven 220C for 15-20 minutes

Notes
To freeze, cut fresh scone in half spread with margarine and your favourite spread (ie. honey). Place halves back together and freeze in a airtight container for up to 4 weeks. Perfect lunchbox snack, place in lunchbox frozen, by morning tea it will be defrosted.

      I also like plain scones with vegemite. Kids might like the cheesybite. simple lunchbox snack.

    I made these yesterday – the girls (2 & 4) loved them with a littler butter as a snack after dinner last night, & plain at the shops today. I also just had one plain, yummo! I must admit I was lazy though & didn’t measure the pumpkin lol
