Recipe

PUMPKIN BISCUITS

1) Preheat oven to 450�F.

2) Place the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and allspice in a medium-size mixing bowl and stir well to combine.

3) Cut butter into flour mixture with a pastry blender or fork until the batter resembles coarse crumbs.

4) Add the pumpkin, half-and-half, and pecans and stir just until moistened and a soft dough forms. More flour may be added here if needed, but just enough to make the dough easy to
handle.

5) On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to 1/2 - inch thickness. Cut into approximately 2 1/2 inch rounds with a floured biscuit or cookie cutter and place 1 inch apart on a lightly greased cookie sheet.

6) Bake for 8 - 12, minutes or until golden brown. Serve hot with butter, honey, and jam.
