BEST PUMPKIN BISCUITS Recipe
Posted on October 28, 2012 by The Southern Lady
If you like pumpkin, you will love these biscuits. They are light and fluffy and wonderful with butter and honey or molasses.
- 2 cups self-rising flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon allspice
- 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 3/4 cup 100% pumpkin
- 1/2 cup shortening
Mix flour, sugar, ginger, cinnamon, allspice and nutmeg together in a large bowl with a wire whisk. Cut in the shortening until mixture is like coarse crumbs. Add buttermilk and pumpkin and mix with spoon. Turn onto a floured surface. I just pat these out with my hands and cut out. (I used a juice glass because I wanted a smaller biscuit for these). Bake in preheated 450 degree oven for 12 to 15 minutes. This made about 20 biscuits using for me using a smaller cutter. Enjoy!
