2 tsp. baking powder
½ tsp. baking soda
½ tsp. salt
1/3 cup sucanat or brown sugar
2 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. ginger
4 Tbsp. chilled coconut oil or cold unsalted butter
2 eggs, divided
3/4 cup pumpkin puree
1 cup milk
½ cup dried cranberries
2 tbsp. sugar crystals, optional
½ cup pumpkin protein powder (or vanilla)
2 tsp. baking powder
½ tsp. baking soda
½ tsp. salt
1/3 cup sucanat or brown sugar
2 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. ginger
4 Tbsp. chilled coconut oil or cold unsalted butter

Maple Pumpkin Icing:
1 Tbsp. pumpkin puree
1 Tbsp. maple syrup
¾ cup powdered sugar
Preheat oven to 400˚F. Combine dry ingredients in food processor; add coconut oil and pulse until mixture resembles cornmeal. Transfer to a large bowl.
Whisk together 1 egg plus 1 yolk (reserving 1 white for brushing), pumpkin and milk in a medium bowl until blended. Add mixture, along with cranberries to dry ingredients and mix until soft dough forms. Place on a floured surface and knead a few times, dusting with flour to prevent sticking. Divide dough in half and shape each into logs, about 10 inches in length; flatten to 1 ½ inch thick. Cut each log into 11 wedges and transfer to 2 greased baking sheets, placing them about 2 inched apart. Brush each scone with egg whites and sprinkle with sugar if desired. Bake for about 15 minutes or until golden. Transfer to wire rack to cool completely.
