Pumpkin Spice Scones

 

Fall is my favourite time of the year. One of the reasons is the amount of pumpkin spice recipes, I can’t get enough! Pumpkin cookies, muffins, lattes, bread, and even scones. There is nothing better than fall inspired recipes and the warming spices that go hand in hand.

 

 

These pumpkin scones are perfect for any Sunday brunch, mid-afternoon snack, or forest stroll. Yes, they are perfect any time and anywhere 🙂
