Ingredients
  

For the Biscuit Base
  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour Can swap with a gluten-free blend if needed.
  • 0.25 cup Brown Sugar Can substitute with white sugar for a lighter flavor.
  • 1 tablespoon Baking Powder Ensure it's fresh for the best rise.
  • 1 tablespoon Pumpkin Spice Can be homemade using cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt Sea salt or kosher salt works beautifully.
  • 0.5 cup Cold Butter Keep chilled for the best texture or use vegan butter.
For the Wet Ingredients
  • 0.75 cup Pumpkin Puree Fresh or canned versions work well—watch the water content.
  • 0.33 cup Buttermilk Substitute with regular milk plus a splash of vinegar if needed.

Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, brown sugar, baking powder, pumpkin spice, and salt.
  2. Cut cold butter into small cubes and mix into the dry mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together pumpkin puree and buttermilk until fully combined.
  4. Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and stir until just combined, forming a shaggy dough.
  5. Transfer the dough to a floured surface, knead gently, pat into a 4-inch square, and cut into four equal pieces.
  6. Brush the tops of the biscuits lightly with melted butter, preheat air fryer to 350°F, and arrange biscuits in the basket.
  7. Air fry the biscuits at 350°F for 10-12 minutes, checking periodically for even cooking.
  8. Check for doneness by tapping the tops; they should sound hollow. Let cool slightly before serving.
