Servings: 8 -10 biscuits

Ingredients

Pumpkin Spice Biscuits

  • 2 1/2 cups self-rising flour plus extra for dusting
  • 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 2 teaspoons Penzey's cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup cold butter cubed
  • 3/4 cup whole buttermilk chilled
  • 3 tablespoons melted butter for brushing on top
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon-sugar reserve for topping

Whipped Spiced Sweet Butter

  • 1/2 cup 1 stick unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin spice
  • 1 teaspoon Penzey's cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt if using salted butter, omit this

Instructions

Pumpkin Spice Biscuits

  • Pre-heat oven to 425. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, stir together the dry ingredients (flour, sugar, salt and spices). Using a fork, cut butter into the flour until mixture resembles course crumbs with some pea-size butter pieces remaining.  Add buttermilk, stirring until combined.
  • Turn dough out onto a well-floured surface. Knead dough several times until it comes together. Pat into a 10x9 rectangle. Using a 2 1/2 inch round cutter dipped in flour, cut dough without twisting cutter. Reroll scraps as needed. Place rounds on prepared pan, spacing 2 inches apart. Brush tops with melted butter and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar, (reserving leftover butter for another brushing after baked). Freeze until chilled, about 15 minutes.
  • Bake until golden brown, about 11-12 minutes. While the biscuits are still warm, brush the remaining melted butter.

Whipped Spiced Sweet Butter

  • In a small bowl, whisk together all ingredients until smooth and whipped. Spread onto warm biscuits and serve.
