These are the Australian-style pumpkin scones. They come out like scones not like muffins.

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon butter, at room temperature
• 2 cups self-rising flour
• ½ cup white sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 1 cup cooked and mashed pumpkin
• 1 egg

Cooking Directions

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
2. Rub butter into flour in a bowl using your fingers until evenly combined. Add sugar, baking powder, and salt to flour mixture; make a well in the center. Mix pumpkin and egg together in a separate bowl; pour into the well and mix until dough is well combined. Turn dough onto a floured work surface and cut into squares using a knife with flour on it. Arrange squares on a baking sheet.
3. Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes.
