Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups all purpose flour 187g; fluffed spooned & leveled
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp cold butter cut into small pieces
  • ¾ cup pumpkin puree
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt

For the topping

  • 2 tbsp butter melted

Instructions

  • Begin by preheating the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the all purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  • Using a pastry cutter, or fork cut in the cold butter until the butter is in small pea sized pieces.
  • In a separate medium bowl, combine the pumpkin puree and Greek yogurt.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. You may find it is easier to use your hands.
