Pumpkin Biscuits

Happy October to YOU! I hope all of you are enjoying your weekend!

We literally got our trips to the dump made, the driveway swept...from sawdust and lots of old paint chips, the lawn mowed and the garage cleaned up before it started to rain! Now aside from needing to paint the house...we are ready for all the rain and to be comfy and cozy in our little home. Are you ready to take it "easy", too? I have no desire to have any more home projects going on for a VERY.LONG.TIME!!!

This last week, I was dying to make an old-fashioned pot roast dinner. So, that is exactly what the Dr. ordered! Do you ever just crave a nice, warm dinner with your family? To go along with dinner, I added baby red potatoes and sweet carrots to the crockpot for about an hour before dinner. I fried green beans and made pumpkin biscuits. The kiddies and their friends love them. Not only are they a pretty orange hue, but they are also extra nutritious and oh.so.moist!

Pumpkin Biscuits
Lisa Pearson

2 cups flour

1/4 cup brown sugar

1 tsp. baking powder

1/4 tsp. baking soda

1/4 tsp. sea salt

1 Tbsp.soy flour {I buy mine in bulk at WINCO}

1/2 cup butter...cut into small pieces

1/3 cup 2% milk, 1/2 and 1/2 or heavy cream

1/2 cup plain ol' pumpkin...no spices needed this time!

Directions:

Whisk together dry ingredients

Add butter and cut into dry ingredients...use a pastry cutter or a flat beater on a stand mixer

Add all wet ingredients to flour mixture

Blend until ingredients come together

Transfer to lightly floured surface...I use a ROULPAT with a bit of flour

Pat into about a 10 inch disc

Using a cookie cutter...cut out biscuits. I used a 3" cutter and got about 12 biscuits.

Place biscuits on SILPAT

Bake at 425* for about 10 to 12 minutes or until lightly golden.

Serve warm with WHIPPED BUTTER. That is it!

By the way, these freeze beautifully!

ENJOY!
