Ingredients (makes 12 biscuits):
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/2 cup milk
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves.
3. Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree and milk until smooth.
5. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
6. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently until it comes together.
7. Pat the dough out into a circle that's about 1 inch thick, then use a biscuit cutter or a drinking glass to cut out 12 biscuits.
8. Place the biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until they're golden brown and cooked through.
9. Serve warm with butter, honey, or your favorite jam.
