Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 250c. Brush a 20cm round baking tray with melted butter and coat lightly with flour.
  2. Mix flours, sugar and nutmeg in a bowl with a wire whisk to combine. Using a round-bladed knife, stir in the grated pumpkin and mix well.
  3. Add in the melted butter, buttermilk and sufficient water to moisten the dry ingredients. Mix with your hands to form a ball.
  4. Lightly knead mixture on a lightly floured surface and roll onto a round shape about 1 cm thick. Using a 5 cm scone cutter cut out 12 scones, placing them close together on the prepared baking tray. Brush the tops lightly with the extra buttermilk.
  5. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Note. When tapped, the scones should sound hollow. Turn scones out onto a wire cooling rack.
  6. To make the chive butter mix butter and chives until combined. Serve scones warm or cold and spread with chive butter.
