Pumpkin Scone Tips
What should I serve with scones?
Pumpkin scones are a nice addition to a brunch spread. Consider serving with other baked goods, such as homemade muffins, fresh berries and yogurt, or supplying simple jam and butter. Homemade apple butter is another delicious option to spread on pumpkin scones when they’re still steamy from the oven.
How do I keep scones from drying out?
There are a few steps to keeping these pumpkin scones nice and moist. For starters, making sure not to overwork the batter is key. Use cold ingredients, such as cold butter and milk, when you can. This helps to ensure that ingredients are fully combined, which allows the scones to rise well and form as they should.
How can I keep my scones from sticking together in the freezer?
Scones do freeze well, but you need to make sure that you keep them well separated in the freezer. To do this, wrap each scone in wax paper, and then add them to a zippered freezer bag or airtight, freezer-safe container.
