1/2 cup pure pumpkin puree
1/4 cup brown sugar + 2 tablespoons for topping
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
2 cups all purpose flour
3/4 cup unsalted butter, cold, cut into cubes
1 large egg
1/4 cup buttermilk, plus more for brushing

1
In a large bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup brown sugar, granulated sugar, baking powder, ginger, nutmeg, cinnamon, salt, cloves, baking soda, and flour. Using your fingers or a pastry cutter, cut in the butter until it forms small pea-sized lumps.
2
In a medium bowl, mix together egg, pumpkin, and buttermilk. Pour into bowl with flour and stir until dough starts to form. Add a bit more flour if dough is too wet.
3
Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface and shape into a 11/2 inch thick disk. Cut into 8 wedges or shape into 8 circles. Transfer scones to a parchment lined baking sheet and freeze for 25-30 minutes, or overnight.
4
Preheat oven to 400. Brush scones with additional buttermilk and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons brown sugar. If scones were in the freezer for 30 minutes, bake for 25-30 minutes until golden grown. If frozen overnight, bake for 30-35 minutes.
