Fluffy and flavorful biscuits with a hint of pumpkin spice.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/4 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- 3/4 cup cold buttermilk
- 1/4 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
- Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, pumpkin puree, sugar, and vanilla extract.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat it into a 3/4-inch thick rectangle.
- Fold the dough in half, then pat it down again to 3/4-inch thickness. Repeat this folding and patting process 2-3 more times.
- Cut out biscuits using a 2-inch round cutter. Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
Notes
- For extra flavor, you can brush the tops of the biscuits with melted butter after they come out of the oven.
- Serve warm with butter or your favorite jam.
