I made these lovely scones one day when looking for a way to use up leftover pumpkin, and I was so excited with the results. I often use my food processor to stir up the dough just until it comes together. It's so simple to prepare this way. —Brenda Jackson, Garden City, Kansas

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 7 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon sugar, divided
