Organic Pumpkin Scones
Ingredients
2 cups organic flour
1/3 cup organic brown sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp ginger
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 stick (1/2 cup) cold unsalted organic butter, cut into small cubes
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
1/3 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup organic pumpkin puree
1 tsp vanilla
Preparation
1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees fahrenheit and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Place that baking sheet on top of another baking sheet.
2
Whisk together the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3
Knead the butter in until it forms small crumbs. Mix in the chocolate chips. Set aside.
4
In a separate bowl mix together the buttermilk, pumpkin and vanilla. Mix into the crumb mix until it forms a dough.
5
On a lightly floured surface knead the dough until it forms a ball.
6
Pat the ball to about 7 inches wide, then cut into 8 - 10 pieces. I used floss to do this.
7
Move the scones to the baking sheet and brush with either an egg wash or heavy cream.
8
Bake 20 minutes, rotating 180 degrees after 10 minutes, or until golden brown.

Enjoy immediately - making this recipe perfect for sharing! :)
