 Hi friends welcome back to my channel and welcome if you are new here I am so excited about today's collab thank you so much to Robert over at Freaky Fit for hosting this collab it was a fun fun one to do and it is perfect timing with fall right around the corner it's actually fall weather where I live it's already cooled off the leaves are starting to turn and of course fall is my favorite time of year so I was extremely excited to participate in this collab make sure you check out all of the channels linked down in the description box so you can get your fill of all things fall I can't wait to share this fall recipe with you I'm going to be showing you a copycat Starbucks pumpkin scone recipe these turned out so good so good my opinion don't tell but better than Starbucks and the smart points were a quarter less than a quarter of the points of a traditional Starbucks pumpkin scone so you can have your pumpkin and eat it too with this recipe so if you want to see what I have in store for you for this collab of all things fall and Starbucks pumpkin scones just stay tuned I'm going to be making copycat Starbucks pumpkin scones with the icing we are even going to include the delicious icing one of my favorite things for fall from Starbucks but they are 26 smart points so let's make a ww friendly version that tastes just as good so you're going to need some milk now you can do almond milk you could also do fat free half and half whatever you prefer the original recipe uses heavy cream so I'm going to be using this creamy almond breeze because it's really thick like cream but literally like an eighth of the smart point so you're going to need some sort of thick creamy milk all-purpose flour some sort of powdered sugar alternative so the sucran icing is delicious you can purchase this off of net triton's website there is a link down in the description box click the link it'll take you to the website they have so many ww friendly things and one of the things I always buy off of there is sucran so I'm going to be using this sucran icing and also the sucran gold which is a brown sugar alternative these two taste so much like the real thing it's crazy and they're zero calories so we're going to be using both of those you'll also need some baking powder I'm going to be doing Dax pumpkin spice instead of doing all of the different spices cloves nutmeg cinnamon I'm just going to use this it's all inclusive it's delicious it is zero salt which is so great before weigh in it is all natural no MSG pure ingredients absolutely delicious if you're interested in Dax which I highly recommend especially the pumpkin spice I do have 10% off it is here on the screen so if you click the link down in the description box enter my code here on the screen you'll get 10% off they have over 20 seasonings and everyone is outstanding definitely pick up the pumpkin spice tis the season guys make sure you have this on hand so I'm definitely going to be using that I'm also going to be adding a little bit extra cinnamon especially to the icing just to give it that more authentic spicy flavor you'll also need some canned pumpkin make sure you're using the 100% pumpkin not the pumpkin pie mix some salt and lastly some vanilla extract I love the Trader Joe's pure bourbon it is so good so let's get started on our copycat Starbucks pumpkin scones so for scones we're going to combine all of our dry ingredients so I have two cups of all-purpose flour we're also going to add one third packed cup of brown sugar and again I am using the sucran gold that you can purchase off of nettrition we also need one tablespoon of baking powder so I'm gonna go ahead and add that and then we're going to need some salt so just a dash of salt about a half of a teaspoon and that'll kind of bring out those flavors you always want to use salt and bake goods it just brings out all of the flavors and then I'm gonna add a little bit of cinnamon because like I said I really want to bring in the flavor of cinnamon and then I'm going to add in my star of the show my Dax pumpkin spice so I'm gonna really kind of load up on that because I want about a teaspoon and a half worth because that is what all of the other spices would equal if I wasn't using Dax so I'm just going to take my spoon and I'm going to kind of mix this together and I didn't show you guys but you'll also need some butter so I went ahead and measured out one half of a cup of the I can't believe it's not butter light I popped it into the freezer to get nice and cold and we're gonna go ahead and cut that in to our dry mixture so there is our dry ingredients so let's grab our butter and add it in so here's my one half of a cup of my light butter so what I'm going to do is I'm going to just drop it by chunks here into my dry ingredients and then I'm gonna use two knives and I'm going to cut it into my dry ingredients until it's formed about the size of little peas in my flour you can also use a pastry cutter but this works just as well just to go ahead and cut it into your dry ingredients make sure your butter again is about the size of a pea so we're gonna get this cut into all of our dry ingredients and then we're moving on to the next step after your butter is cut in we're gonna put this mixture into the freezer for about five minutes and in the meantime we are going to put together our pumpkin puree and get that ready to add to our dry ingredients once it comes out of the freezer while that's in the freezer I've grabbed another bowl here and to this bowl I'm going to add one-third cup of the pumpkin puree and then I'm also going to add two-thirds cup of my milk or cream or whatever it is that you decide to use and then we are going to just mix this together until everything is incorporated and combine and then we will be adding this to our dry mixture once it comes out of the freezer I just removed my dry mixture out of the freezer here is my pumpkin puree and almond milk so I'm just going to add this to my dry mixture and then we are just going to stir this until the dry portion of our scone is moistened we don't want to over mix this so we're just barely going to mix it through until everything has a little bit of moisture and then we're ready to form our scones and get them into the oven so your scone dough should be on the crumbly side and we're going to go ahead and add this to some parchment paper here on our counter and we're going to form this into a seven inch round ball or as close to seven inches as you can get round ball and that's what we are going to use to form our scones so we're just going to take our hands here and we're just going to form this into a round ball you can even use your spatula and just get it as round of a shape as you can and the thickness you want it about an inch and a half or so thick so get it into that circle shape and then we're going to go ahead and cut it into our scone pieces and get it into the oven so we're going to cut this into eight wedges so I'm going to go ahead and cut it down the middle you'll see that I do have my nonstick cooking spray out in case I want to use it to spray my knife and then I'm also going to cut this into another two sections and this into another two sections and then I'm going to cut this and then that will give us those eight pie shaped scones and then these are going to go on our baking sheet and we'll get these ready to go into the oven so we have our scones out here on our baking sheet and the last step before these go into the oven is we're going to take a little bit more of our almond milk and we're just going to brush it over the top of our scones and that's going to seal in that moisture and it's also going to add that nice coloring on the top of our cooked scones and then this is going to go in the oven at 450 degrees just until our scones are cooked all the way through so we're gonna get them brushed with that little bit of almond milk and then we're going to get these into the oven our pumpkin scones are out of the oven you guys these look so good and they look like Starbucks so I'm gonna let these cool and while these are cooling let's mix up our glaze and our pumpkin spice drizzle so we're gonna put together the glaze so in my bowl here I have one cup of the sucran powdered sugar and to that I'm going to add half of a teaspoon of vanilla extract those of you that watch my channel know that I generally don't measure I just kind of eyeball it and then we're gonna add in our almond milk or cream or whatever it is that you're using a little bit at a time until we have the desired consistency of our glaze we don't want to pour the whole thing in there because we don't want our glaze to runny so we literally want to do a little bit at a time and in my bowl is three and a half tablespoons or so of the almond milk so look this we're getting pretty close to the right consistency here and we've only used about half of the almond milk so that's actually a good glaze consistency I'm gonna put just a tiny bit more and there you go look at that that's a perfect consistency of glaze so now let's put together the cinnamon swirl for the pumpkin spice drizzle I have about a quarter of a cup of the powdered sugar that's unfortunately all that I have left the recipe actually calls for three quarters of a cup but this is gonna have to do and to this I'm going to add one tablespoon of my canned pumpkin so we're gonna go ahead and add that we're also going to add in a little bit of our ground cinnamon because this is where a lot of that spice flavor is gonna come from and then also our Dax pumpkin spice and let's go ahead and give this a quick mix and then we are going to add in some of our almond milk until we get that nice drizzle consistency where it's runny enough that we can drizzle it over the top of our scones so just a little bit of almond milk at a time again same way that we kind of did the frosting until we get it thin enough that we can kind of drizzle it over oh my gosh this smells so good so fall and pumpkin-y so now we're getting there so see how our consistency we can add just a little bit more of the almond milk and then we're gonna be ready to frost up our scones as soon as they are nice and cooled so I have my cooled scones look at these these look so good so starbucksy so to our scones we're going to take our glaze and I'm just going to drop it over my scone you can see that I do have them here on some parchment paper and it is going to run off which is just fine but you do want to go ahead and drop that glaze onto all eight of your scones and we're gonna give it just a couple of minutes for it to dry it will speed up the drying process if you put it into the fridge so I will most likely transfer these to a baking sheet and throw them into my fridge for a few minutes to get this glaze nice and hardened and then we'll put on that pumpkin spice drizzle but oh my goodness you guys if this isn't a Starbucks recreation I don't know what is so I just pulled my scones out of the fridge the glaze here has hardened a little bit I'm going to drizzle over the pumpkin portion of it and then we are going to put this back on to our drying rack give it an opportunity to dry a little bit and then we will be done with our scones and I'll be back to show you what they look like when they're all done again I'm going to put them back on my drying racks and just give them the opportunity to dry just a bit more and then that way the everything the glaze and this pumpkin spice and everything will dry nicely on top of our scones but it looks absolutely delicious so I cannot wait to try these so I'll be back with one plated up and I will give you so here are our copycat Starbucks pumpkin scones I just tried one of these and they are outstanding you can see there's two missing I'm going to have one and I baked one up for my husband but this is what the finished product looks like I did add just a little bit of that Dax pumpkin spice to the top my goodness you guys so wait until you hear the smart points so you can have one entire scone and these are huge as you can see and one scone is only five smart points who needs Starbucks when you can have a copycat Starbucks pumpkin scone for only five smart points I hope you enjoyed seeing my recreation of the traditional Starbucks pumpkin scone I'm telling you these were better than the Starbucks and five smart points can you believe a huge full-sized scone for only five smart points you can't go wrong these would be great to take to work to serve with a nice piping hot cup of pumpkin spice coffee oh I'm dreaming all things fall thank you again to Robert over at
