Halloween Honey Pumpkin Biscuits
Published on October 19, 2015
Halloween Honey Pumpkin Biscuits are great at any time of the year, but if you want to make some special ones for Halloween, the aromatic pumpkin spice in these makes them ideal. Your kitchen will smell incredible while these are baking in the oven, and then you can enjoy them warm, fresh from the oven, as a Halloween treat.
Using our Buttermilk Biscuit Mix cuts down on the ingredients you need and the preparation time, and you can expect light, fluffy biscuits boasting plenty of wonderful flavor and an appealing homemade look.
You can use fresh cooked pumpkin in this recipe or canned pumpkin. Don’t use pumpkin pie filling – you need the 100% pure pumpkin puree. Feel free to swap the honey for molasses or agave syrup if you wish, or else leave it out if you prefer more savory biscuits. These are great served with butter, and the whole family is sure to love this delicious Halloween snack.
