Starbucks Pumpkin Scones Recipe
Since I still had plenty of pumpkin left from the last pumpkin recipe I just posted (I always just buy the big can of pumpkin pie filling), I decided to post another pumpkin recipe I’ve been dying to try. I love the Pumpkin Scones from Starbucks, but Starbucks is not yet offering this perfect fall treat. Sometimes you just have to make your own copycat Starbucks pumpkin scone recipe when you get that craving for a taste of pumpkin! Seeing as Starbucks isn’t currently selling pumpkin scones, I can’t say these are identical since I can’t do a side-by-side comparison, but I did go off the ingredients list they have posted on their website so they should be very close. Once you try these you might likely say they are even better!

These are some of the softest and moistest scones I’ve ever had—even though there is no heavy cream in the dough base (unlike a traditional scone that uses about a cup of cream). The cold butter makes a huge difference when it’s cut into your flour mixture and dry ingredients, then folded into the wet ingredients. They are pretty much my idea of the perfect scone, especially considering they are pumpkin… and we all know how much I love pumpkin-baked treats. How could these not be good though? You get this delicious pumpkin pie spice scone topped with not just one icing, but two! I’m sure these are going to be my new favorite Fall baked goods. These pumpkin scones are a perfect fall treat to take to a Halloween party, Thanksgiving, or to make for a fun autumn baking day. Or of course—pair it with your beloved pumpkin spice lattes! It’s totally Instagram-worthy. Enjoy!
