Pumpkin Biscuits

By 14 Comments

Hi Everyone and Happy Labor Day!!

Today I have for you a moist, healthy, yummy pumpkin biscuit.  It’s so moist and tender I can barely keep my hands off of them.

On Sunday morning, I had no idea what to make.  I debated about making scones or muffins, but I was hungry and I wanted something that was more on the quick side, so I threw together these lovely biscuits.  I decided on pumpkin because I have a ton of it left over from my frappes, and making pumpkin frappes barley put a dent in a 29 oz can of pumpkin.


These biscuits are pretty moist and there not real sweet, that’s why I put the sugar glaze on top.  If you like a sweeter biscuit I recommend using 1/4 cup of sugar in the recipe to make it more sweet.  I’m really trying to cut back on sugar, but I have been told that my recipes could be sweeter.  Sweetness is an individual  preference and if I didn’t have a growing waistline I would so be adding more sugar.

The batter to these biscuits is pretty wet, so don’t let that scare you.  I used a heaping cookie scoop of batter to make these.  I ended with 18 fat biscuits.  Here’s what they looked like on the cookie sheet before baking them.  They kind of look like tan cow pies.  Yes, I”m gross and yes you really read that!!

Now they may look kind of funny before baking them, but believe me if you’re a pumpkin fan you will be happily pleased with the out come.  There only 80 calories each, 3 grams of fiber and 18 carbs.  Not to shabby for a biscuit.  These are also vegan, since I used coconut milk instead of skim milk.

  5. I’m laughing Jennifer because I took a pumpkin cake to a celebration at work last night. I have been dying to start cooking/baking “fall” but told myself I had to at least wait till Labor Day! These biscuits sound wonderful! I’m afraid the 80 calories would be a joke for me as I would probably slather them with butter! YUM!
