Okay, I know it's not pumpkin season. I know pumpkin treats are supposed to be consumed from October-December. I have also decided these guidelines are ridiculous, because everyone knows that pumpkin is good ALL THE TIME! After my successful blueberry scone experiment, I decided to tackle one of my own favorites: the spiced pumpkin scone.
When I was in elementary school, my dad would drop me off at the bus stop every morning on his way to work. It was always a pleasant trip, filled with Black Eyed Peas and Elton John tunes. Too cool for school. On Fridays, though, I'd set my alarm 30 minutes early for our special Starbucks escapade. We'd make a detour at the 'Bux, and I'd always get a vanilla-flavored milkbox and... a PUMPKIN SCONE! It was such an indulgence, and I savored that scone each week with my good ol' dad.
However, my homemade pumpkin scones are better. But oh! you say. The injustice! Trivializing your childhood memories! I respond by telling you that my dad himself declared these scones the best thing I've ever baked.
WHAT?!
Just make them.
