Pumpkin biscuits with spiced apple butter are a delicious and comforting autumn treat. These biscuits are made with pumpkin puree, which gives them a lovely orange hue and a soft, tender texture. They are flavoured with warm spices like cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg, which pair perfectly with the sweet and tangy spiced apple butter.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
- 2-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter
- 3/4 cup canned pumpkin
- Apple butter, optional
Instructions
Steps:
- Preheat air fryer to 370°. In a large bowl, whisk the first 5 ingredients. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add pumpkin; stir just until moistened.
- Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead gently 8-10 times. Pat or roll dough to 1/2-in. thickness; cut with a floured 2-1/2-in. biscuit cutter. In batches, place in a single layer 1 in. apart in greased air fryer. Cook until golden brown, 7-9 minutes. If desired, serve with apple butter.
