Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and spices. Add the cold butter to the dry ingredients and toss to coat. Using your fingers or a pastry cutter, break the butter down into the dry ingredients. Work quickly so that the butter remains cold. Some of the butter will be the size of oat flakes, others will be the size of small peas. In a small bowl, whisk together buttermilk, pumpkin puree, and vanilla extract. Add the wet ingredients, all at once to the dry ingredients. Stir together until

almost thoroughly combined. Add pecans and stir until no dry flour bits remain. Using a medium ice cream scoop, scoop scones dough by the 1/4-cupful onto the prepared baking sheet. Leave about 2-inches of space between each scone. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until browned slightly with dry tops. You can insert a toothpick into the center of a scone to test for doneness. Allow to cool completely before glazing. To make the glaze, in a small saucepan melt butter over medium-low heat. The butter will begin to crackle and pop. After the crackling subsides a bit, the butter will begin to brown. Continue to cook until the butter smells nutty and the butter solids begin to brown. Immediately remove from the heat and transfer to a small bowl. In a medium bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, browned butter, vanilla, and 2 tablespoons of milk. Whisk together and add more milk as necessary until your desired consistency is reached. Generously drizzle scones with glaze. These scones are best served within 2 days of of baking.
