Pumpkin Raisin Walnut Scone (Vegan)

Yum

My latest scone du jour: Pumpkin Raisin Walnut Scone: Another great nutrient trio! I have decided to call my new line of Cuisinicity scones my trifecta scones (check my other 2 so far: Pear Fig Walnut Scones, Apple Date Walnut Scones and I have many more in mind that I am working on)! It makes sense: the definition of trifecta is  “a perfect group of three” or ” winning three times” and that’s what all my wholegrain scones are based on: 3 wholesome main ingredients: one fresh fruit or vegetable, one dried fruit, one nut. I vary any one of them to create a new flavor.  I am having so much fun creating these moist luscious scones and one more thing…they have no added sugar! I hope you enjoy them as much as I and my family do!

Pumpkin Raisin Walnut Scone (Vegan)
 
Print
Author: Catherine Katz
Serves: 10 scones
Ingredients
  • Wet Ingredients:
  • 1 cup canned organic pumpkin (100%--no added salt or sugar)
  • ⅓ organic raisins (packed)
  • ½ cup organic expeller pressed canola oil
  • ½ tsp pure vanilla extract
  • Dry Ingredients:
  • 2 cups white whole wheat flour
  • 1½ tsp baking powder
  • ⅓ cup raw walnut halves or pieces
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven 350 F
  2. Coarsely chop the raisins and place with the canned pumpkin and canola oil in the bowl of an electric mixer and beat for a couple minutes until creamy.
  3. Add the dry ingredients and beat again (it will form a very thick dough and that's OK).
  4. Scoop out the dough in large heaping spoonfuls, and place each scoop (you'll have enough for 9 small scones) on top of a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  5. Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes until golden.

I like to use King Arthur white whole wheat flour for this recipe: it’s filled with fiber, yet is very light in texture!king arthur flour package perfect for Cuisinicity's Pumpkin Raisin Walnut Scone

    Hello!

    I really enjoy your videos and have fun watching them. You are an inspiration! I wanted to ask if I do not have access to white whole wheat flour what can I use instead to have the same results? Thank you!

    Hi Catherine,

    Any change I could substitute apple sauce for the canola oil in this recipe?

      Ginger, if that’s what you prefer, by all means, I just can’t say if the texture will be the same!

    I made this recipe today! My first “cuisinicity” recipe 🙂 I doubled the recipe and added two eggs, two TBS backstrap molasses, and two tsp cinnamon. Delicious! For whatever reason, after doubling the recipe I ended up with 21 scones instead of 18, but I’m happy with that result! When I first bit into the scone, I expected a sweeter flavor. I finished the scones and realized that I did not miss the added sugar! These will make great breakfast scones! Thanks Catherine!

      Ellen,
      It sounds like you have made up your mind already! However,if you are interested, I have written about the “verdict” on canola oil before and you are welcome to it:

            Neither canola nor EVOO seem good options for a cooking oil to me. Have you double-checked their smoke point?
            Plus, canola is GMO by definition so not something I would EVER consider.

        i appreciate your response but i am with th Esselstyn/McDougall/Campbell court and do not consume oil. I LOVE my diet. Check out Dr Esselstynn’s “No Oil” on YouTube. “No oil”. i will try them with applesauce replacement fo the oil. thank you

    Hi Catherine,

    This scone recipe could not be easier!! Do you think dates could be substituted for the raisins? I’m not a big raisin fan :))

    Thanks for another healthy, delicious sounding and perfectly seasonal recipe!!

      Absolutely Caroline! that’s the beauty of my “trifecta” scones. You can use the same amount of medjool dates that I use in my apple date walnut scones instead: https://cuisinicity.com/apple-date-walnut-scones-vegan/
