Arrrgghhhh! Not the dreaded SCONES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just when you thought it was safe to eat baked goods again...the scones return in an all out success story in the form of PUMPKIN scones. Varied recipe, added about a third cup p. to mix, some cinnamon and I lightened up on the sour cream...still a very sticky dough but didn't cave and add more flour and a good thing too because they were perfect. I cut out little circles and added a dollop of pumpkin (no added sweetener M) and then made these muffins....WOW. 1/2 fill with the dough, add a generous amount of pumpkin and top with more dough...really a winner. You can't really see in the pics, but the muffins are just stuffed with pumpkin. The combination of the scone and pumpkin are to die for. Needed ginger terribly but didn't have any! Where'd my ginger go?? Anyway, I can see these will be worth making again and I see a pumpkin pancake in the future for the kids as well...
HSC, I know you said muffins were better but I am going to have to get you a warm basket of these and see if you change your mind...

Just make sure I'm at her house when you bring the basket of warm ones...the blueberry scones you brought her (okay really Sparkly Suzanne brought them, but that's a whole different story) were yummy.

Yeah, you can bring the scones for the party!

Pumpkin pancakes are the bomb, too! Had some at a little french bistro cafe called Mimi's Cafe and they were soooo good! They had pumpkin spice muffins there too. Yummy! I need to make some of these at home once I use up all the peaches and apples and tomatoes - oh my!

Those look soooo good! I love the idea of putting pumpkin in the middle. So, when do I get to try them?
