Ingredients

  • 1 cup whole spelt flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp sea salt
  • ¼ cup pumpkin puree
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 4-5 Tbsp milk of your choice see Notes

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  • Mix the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, salt) in a large bowl.
  • Add in the pumpkin and oil, stirring until the mixture looks 'pebbly'. See photos below the recipe.
  • Pour in the milk, stirring until the dough holds together well and is neither too sticky nor too dry. I get this with five tablespoons of milk, but start with four, and add more as you need.
  • Lightly flour a surface and pat the dough out into a 1/2 inch thick square.
  • At this point, you can get fancy and use a water glass to cut your dough into round biscuits or just cut it with a knife. I shape the biscuits a bit with my hands a bit after cutting.
  • Place the uncooked biscuits onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
  • Brush them with some melted butter or olive oil, if desired.
  • Bake 10-12 minutes until lightly golden.
