Homemade Pumpkin Biscuits
Who doesn’t love the best flavors of fall wrapped up in a soft, warm and chewy biscuit?? These Homemade Pumpkin Biscuits are full of pumpkin flavor and make a fun fall twist to homemade bread. I know you and your family will love this recipe.
I was originally planning on making a sweet potato biscuit recipe that I found in an old Amish Cookbook, but then I decided last-minute to use up some of my canned pumpkin puree instead. I ended up doubling the amount of flour from the original recipe because apparently canned pumpkin has a much high water content than sweet potato.
Anyway, the biscuits turned out really good. This is my first time trying a biscuit made with pumpkin and they definitely have an interesting flavor. They’re slightly sweet and pumpkin-y with the texture of a regular biscuit. They’re even better topped with butter, cinnamon and honey. These would be perfect for a fall brunch or breakfast.
