Ingredients
•
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

3/4 cup white sugar
•
1 tablespoon baking powder
•
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
•
1/2 teaspoon salt
•
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
•
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
•
3 tablespoons cold butter

3 tablespoons shortening

Directions
1
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
2
Whisk flour, white sugar, baking powder, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, salt, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger together in a large bowl; cut in butter and shortening using a pastry cutter or 2 knives until mixture is crumbly.
3
Combine pumpkin, egg, and half-and-half in a separate bowl; stir into flour mixture until just combined. Turn dough out onto a floured work surface; shape into a 1/2-inch-thick square. Cut dough into pizza-shaped wedges; arrange on the prepared baking sheet.
4
Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer scones to a wire rack to cool.

Whisk confectioners' sugar, milk, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice together in a bowl; drizzle over scones. Let set.
