Pumpkin Scones

I thought because I had made this so often I had shared....I was wrong, so here goes.....last night I had a church meeting and my favourite thing to take for supper is....

Pumpkin Scones with a slight diference.......

Unfortunately this was all that remained when I took the photo...

2 cups of self raising flour

1 tablespoon butter

1 cup of cold cooked pumpkin

1/2 cup sugar

1 egg

 1 tablespoon hot water

a pinch of salt

Cream butter and sugar with hot water. Add the egg and beat well. Add the pumpkin, then the flour and salt. If too stiff, moisten with a little milk. Roll out, cut into shapes and bake in a fairly hot oven for 10 mins.....

As found in my mum's CWA cookbook

BUT 

It is quite a sticky mixture so I forget the rolling into the shapes bit and drop it whole onto a tray and cook as a damper mound.

When cooked we slice and lather with butter and consume while warm.

MMMMMMM
