Pumpkin Biscuits

 

Pumpkin Biscuits

 

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  a smaller cutter.  Enjoy!
