Pumpkin Scones

Since its October, there will be lots of pumpkins about. Apart from making soup and carving into ghoul-like faces, here is another great thing you can do with your pumpkin. Pumpkin scones!

These are a bit of a favourite of mine, have a lovely colour and are famous where I’m from (Queensland). I remember making these at school in home economics class. Relatively easy even for a 12 year old!

Pumpkin is a great vegetable. Its low in calories, high in vitamin A and it’s a good source of vitamins C , E and lots of minerals including magnesium, potassium, and iron.
