Indulge in a comforting and flavorful pumpkin scone loaf, perfect for any meal or as a delightful snack with a touch of butter.
Ingredients:
  • 300g peeled and deseeded butternut pumpkin, cut into 2cm pieces
  • 450g (3 cups) self-raising flour
  • 32.00 gm brown sugar
  • 2.50 gm ground cinnamon
  • 1.25 gm ground nutmeg
  • 80g butter, cubed, at room temperature
  • 60mls (1/4 cup) milk, at room temperature
  • 1 egg, lightly whisked
  • Extra self-raising flour
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 200°C for a perfect bake.
  • Steam the pumpkin until tender over boiling water. Place in a bowl and allow to cool for 10 minutes.
  • In a medium bowl, mix the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Use your fingertips to blend in the butter until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.
  • Mash the steamed pumpkin using a potato masher or fork, then mix it with the milk and egg until well combined.
  • Combine the pumpkin mixture with the flour mixture using a round-bladed knife, cutting until the mixture starts to come together. Use your hands to bring the dough together. Transfer to a lightly floured surface and knead gently 4-5 times until smooth.
  • Form the dough into a 20cm round, 3cm thick shape and place on a baking tray. Cut 1cm-deep slits on the top to create 12 portions. Dust with a bit of flour, then bake in a preheated oven for about 25 minutes until golden and a skewer comes out clean. Serve warm, broken into pieces with butter.
