📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat the oven to 425°F, then line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
2
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt.
baking powder2 teaspoons
3
Cut the butter into the flour mixture using a pastry cutter or a fork until the mixture resembles coarse sand. There should still be some larger pieces of butter.
butter2 tablespoons
4
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk 1/2 cup heavy cream with the pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie spice until smooth.

5
Make a well in the center of the dry mixture and pour the wet ingredients into the well.
6
Mix the dough together using a wooden spoon or rubber spatula. It should have a slightly dry texture and hold together, but not be crumbly. If the dough is too dry and shaggy, add a tablespoon of heavy cream and work it in. Repeat until the dough holds together.
7
Form the dough into a ball and place it on a lightly floured work surface. Flatten the ball into a circle about 1 1/2 inches thick.
8
Cut the dough into 6 wedges using a knife or pizza cutter.
9
Place the wedges onto the prepared baking sheet and brush with the remaining 2 tablespoons heavy cream. Sprinkle the turbinado sugar on top.
