Fruity Pumpkin Scones Print E-mail

There's a delicate taste of honey about these wondrously moist scones, which can be served either warm or cold, with or without butter.

3⁄4 cup of cooked, mashed pumpkin
2 tbsp butter
1 tbsp honey
1 tsp ground cinnamon
A handful of currants or sultanas
2 cups of wholemeal self-raising flour
A little milk

In a large bowl, mix the pumpkin, butter, honey, cinnamon and currants or sultanas together. Work in the flour and add enough milk to bring to a soft dough consistency. Knead lightly and roll out gently on a lightly floured surface. Cut into 12-15 pieces and place on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake at 200°C/400°F/Gas Mark 6 for about 15 minutes.

Makes 12-15 scones
