Great recipe for Pumpkin scones, see my changes ( I used butternut squash)>>>

[luisa_calif]

I used "riced" baked butternut squash & used diced candied ginger instead of raisins. Really good, mildly sweet. I brushed tops with buttermilk and sprinkled with turbinado sugar.http://www.joyofbaking.com/PumpkinScones.html

shhh! don't tell anyone - this is my base recipe for Pumpkin Scones smileys/wink.gif >>

I don't add any fruit/nuts, however, I do add Skor bits; also brush tops with an egg/cream wash & sprinkle tops liberally with free-flowing raw sugar. I also make mine spicier than the original recipe, upping the measurements, plus adding cloves & allspice.

I just bought a "can" of organic butternut squash puree. Will that work?

DOn't you just love them? I don't eat pumpkin pie but love other stuff made with pumpkin.

A whole can? This recipe only calls for 1/2 cup, so you will have to make them lots of times! LOL

Me too, Luisa. I thought I was the only one.
