Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Lightly grease a cookie sheet or line with parchment paper.
3
Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and spices in a large mixing bowl.

With a fork, pastry knife, or food processor, cut butter into the dry ingredients until mixture is crumbly and no chunks of butter remain. Set aside.

In a separate mixing bowl, whisk pumpkin, half and half (or milk), and eggs.

Fold wet ingredients into dry ingredients. Form the dough into a ball.
I kneeded the dough in the bowl until all of the flour was incorporated into my mix then tossed it on the counter to finish.

Pat out dough onto a lightly floured surface and form it into a 1 inch thickness.

Use a medium sized cup to cut out scones from the dough.
