Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with a silpat or parchment paper. Set aside.
- To a large mixing bowl, add the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves. Mix until combined.
- Plop in the coconut oil and, using a pastry blender (or two butter knives or your hands), work the coconut oil into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- To a medium bowl, add the pumpkin puree, coconut milk, and egg. Whisk together.
- Pour the wet ingredients over the dry and, with a wooden spoon or spatula, mix JUST until it starts to come together. Turn the mixture out onto a clean surface prepped with a sprinkle of flour to help prevent sticking. Finish mixing and shape the dough into an approximately 1-inch thick, 7-inch by 7-inch square. It should be a bit wet but not overly sticky - add a bit more flour if it is.
- Cut the square in half and then each half into three rectangles.
- Transfer the rectangles to your baking sheet.
- Bake about 15 minutes, until puffed, lightly browned on top, and - I feel silly describing this - but how I really know is when they look a bit dry when you peer into the little cracks.
- Remove from oven and transfer to a wire rack. Let cool completely.
- Now glaze! In a small bowl, mix together the powdered sugar, water, and vanilla. Just keep stirring, just keep stirring, until the icing is a spreadable consistency. If it's too thick, add a few more drops of water. If it's too thin, add more powdered sugar. Transfer three tablespoons of the icing to a small bowl and set aside - this will be used for the cinnamon icing.
- Use a pastry brush to liberally spread the icing over the scones. If it seems a bit messy/thick at first, don't worry - it'll smooth on out and look divine momentarily.
- Now make the cinnamon icing. Add cinnamon and turmeric to the three tablespoons of reserved icing and mix well. Transfer to a plastic baggie and squeeze the icing to one corner. Snip off a tiny bit of the corner and squeeze the glaze over the top of the scones.
- Enjoy now or let sit for a bit longer to let the glaze harden.
- Scones keep well at room temperature for 3-4 days, though they definitely don't last that long around here.

STARBUCKS PUMPKIN SCONE
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees, F. Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg, 1/4 teaspoon cloves, and 1/4 teaspoon ginger in a large bowl. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together pumpkin, half-and-half, and egg. Cut butter into cubes, then add it to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry knife or a fork to combine butter with dry ingredients. Continue mixing until no chunks of butter are visible. You can also use a food processor. Pulse butter into dry ingredients until it is the texture of cornmeal or coarse sand. Fold wet ingredients into dry ingredients, then form the dough into a ball. Pat out dough onto a lightly floured surface and form it into a 1-inch thick rectangle that is about 9 inches long and 3 inches wide. Use a large knife or a pizza wheel to slice the dough twice through the width, making 3 equal portions. Cut those three slices diagonally so that you have 6 triangular slices of dough. Bake for 14 to 16 minutes on a baking sheet that has been lightly oiled or lined with parchment paper. Scones should begin to turn light brown. While scones cool, prepare plain glaze by combining ingredients in a medium bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed. Mix until smooth. When scones are cool, use a brush to paint a coating of the glaze over the top of each one. As that white glaze firms up, prepare spiced icing by combining ingredietns in another medium bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed. Drizzle this thicker icing over each scone and allow the icing to dry before serving (at least 1 hour). A squirt bottle works great for this, or you can drizzle with a whisk.
