Flo’s Pumpkin Scones
Ingredients
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 cup butter
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1 cup cold, mashed pumpkin
2-2 1/4 cups SR flour
Preparation
Set oven to 225*.
Beat sugar, butter and salt in either the thermomix, by hand or in a mixer.
Add egg
Add pumpkin and mix.
Stir in the flour by hand.
I then put mine out on a floured mat and sort of kneaded it a bit and pressed it out to about 1 inch thick. 2.5 cm .
I used a circular cutter.
Flo says to put them on a hot, floured tray on the top shelf of a 225-250* oven. I used 225*.
Bake for 15-20 minutes.

I took this from one of Flo’s books, I’m sure she won’t mind me sharing it. I had a ‘happening’ when I put a tray into the oven. It had a piece of baking paper on it for the scones. As I put it in the oven fan blew it onto the hot element and it caught . Silly me. I should have realised. No harm done to me or the kitchen.
