Skeat....here's an easy pumpkin biscuit recipe. I had never thought of making biscuits with pumpkin before a friend gave me the recipe. I like them warm with cinnamon butter.
Pumpkin Biscuits
Ingredients
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp salt
3 Tbsp baking powder
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp ground allspice
1/3 cup cold butter
3/4 cup pumpkin (canned or cooked and mashed)
3/4 cup milk
Instructions
Place 2 cups flour in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Add sugar, salt, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice. Stir well.
Using a pastry blender or two knives in scissor fashion, cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the moisture resembles coarse crumbs.
Add the pumpkin and the milk and stir until all ingredients are moistened and a soft dough forms. (Add more flour if needed, but just enough so it is easy to handle.)
Roll out on a lightly floured surface to approximately 1/2-inch thick. Cut into approximately 2-inch circles using a floured biscuit or cookie cutter and place on a lightly greased cookie sheet 1-inch apart.
Bake at 450 degrees F for 8-12 minutes or until golden brown. Serve hot with butter, honey, or honey butter.
Yield: about 12 biscuits
