Pumpkin Cardamom Scones

10.04.15

Pumpkin Cardamom Scones-baked

Well HELLO!  It’s been awhile.  I’ve been on a blogging diet for over a month.  It was a personal trial and I will share with y’all in an upcoming post but for now, can I just say I am so happy it’s FALL?!?!  Cause you know aside from the fall colors and cooler temps is my love of pumpkin anything!  So this weekend while staying inside due to my allergies, (an unfortunate side effect of the season), I decided to kill two birds with one stone.  Making something pumpkin and using my trial parchment paper from Boolik to review.  So what did I come up with???

Pumpkin Spice Scones with Maple Cardamom Vanilla Bean Glaze.

I love cardamom and seem to never get enough use of it–so when I was thinking of a new scone to make, I decided it would be a good partner with pumpkin.  AND, I was right!  These are buttery, flaky, not too sweet and have the perfect blend of ingredients.

Did a neighborhood trial with the neighbors and here’s what one of ’em wrote- haha!

So the parchment paper I used was for me to review and is a product of BOOLIK.  I’m a HUGE fan of parchment paper, I find it a MUST  in baking.  I had never used this brand before but I found it to totally outshine the ones I’ve used in the past and I’ll tell you why.

Most brands I’ve used tend to get too hot and will crumple up and get a slight burn around the edges.  This one didn’t change at all and I could’ve used it for several baking’s had I had more than one sheet of scones. See how it didn’t even crimp or burn after baking?  Amazing!  So a definite 2 thumbs up!

PUMPKIN SPICE SCONES

  • 2 c all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 c brown sugar, packed
  • 1 t. baking powder
  • 2 t. Penzey cake spice
  • 1/2 t. cardamom
  • 1/2 t. baking soda
  • 1/4 t. salt
  • 1 stick unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
  • 3 T milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 t. vanilla

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mat & set aside.

In a large bowl, combine flour with dry ingredients. Dice the cold butter, using your fingers to work the butter into the dry ingredients until it resembles coarse crumbs.

In a measuring cup or other bowl, whisk together pumpkin, milk, egg and vanilla. Pour mixture over dry ingredients and stir using a rubber spatula until a soft dough forms.

Working on a lightly floured surface, knead the dough 3-4 times until it comes together. Using a rolling pill, roll the dough into a 10- by 7-inch rectangle, about 1-inch thick. Using a large knife or a pizza cutter, cut the rectangle in half lengthwise, then cut into 2 even pieces crosswise, making four rectangles. Cut each rectangle into two triangles, making 8 triangles. Place on baking sheet and into oven.  Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean.

CARDAMOM VANILLA BEAN GLAZE

  • 1 c confectioners’ sugar
  • 1 t. cardamom
  • 2 T heavy cream
  • 1 T maple syrup

To make the glaze, combine sugar, spice, vanilla, and milk. Whisk until smooth, adding more cream if needed for smoother consistency; set aside.

When the scones are done, cool for 10 minutes and drizzle with glaze.  Sprinkle additional spice and chopped pecans.  If able to resist, allow glaze to set before serving.

My little 3 year old grandson was upset with me ye My little 3 year old grandson was upset with me yesterday. 
.
All because he decided to take his blankie home 2 days before and when we layed down to take a nap yesterday he was upset.  Upset he didn’t have his blankie and upset at Mimzy for not getting it for him. I hate to see children unhappy and that little face of his with tears rolling down made me sadder than he was.  I gave him 3 other blankets that didn’t replace his #1 blankie.  When he woke up he was still mad at me! 
.
It was the 1st and hopefully last time he’s ever mad at me, cause I sure didn’t like that and I didn’t even cause the problem to begin with. All I know is that we got that blankie back over here to avoid this happening again. The clock may be ticking and he’s growing full speed ahead but I don’t want to see that little man mad at his Mimzy if I can help it!

Thursday oh Thursday! . Doing something I haven’ Thursday oh Thursday!

Doing something I haven’t done in 5 years and channeling my inner “momma”!

Boo and I were shopping in DesMoines and we stopped in at a local tortilleria as I had ordered some masa. However they informed me they only sell in 10 pounds or more... so out the window went my “I’ll just get 5 pounds of masa for tamales” plan. Ten pounds of masa later, I immediately called my sister for backup help! Lol
.
So today is the day for tamales!  First time I’ll make ‘em since my mommas been gone.  So I’m hoping she’s watching and guiding me along. 
.
On a good note... the masa texture looks amazing so I’m hoping it’s a good sign!!! Wish me luck!

Well, it’s a different word for a Butler’s pantry. We’ve been updating ours and I find that I’m not a Butler’s pantry kinda girl. I replaced the original door with this beauty of a door I snatched for $12! I repaired the broken panes and  took a piece of plywood to make a new center panel. I then added these details on it. 
.
Our home was built for the David Dancer family in 1883. I added the wash, fold, etc. as the space also houses our laundry room. One of these days I can show you the REST of the space but until now, you get a peek at the lovely old door leading into our scullery!
