Let’s cook them together!

We need:

300 g flour for cakes

100 g brown sugar

30 g soft butter (you have to take it from the fridge a few minutes before!)

100 g chopped pumpkin

1 egg

75 ml milk

3 tea spoon of baking powder

Cinnamon

Few Raisins

1 bowl

Baking paper

Alluminium foil

A pan

Chopper

mixer

First of all, turn on the oven at 180°C.

Cut the pumpkin and bake it for 20 minutes in the oven.

While the pumpkin is in the oven, mix  butter and brown sugar together.

Then, you can put the other ingredients in the bowl, in this order: the flour, the chopped pumpkin, the cinnamon, the raisins, the egg, the baking powder and, finally, the milk!

First, mix all the mixture with a spoon for drying the egg, then work the mixture with your hands until you reach a soft but firm consistence!

Let it stand for about 10 minutes! I use this time to clean my upside down kitchen  =D

Now, with you wet hands, make as meat-balls (like in the picture below) and place them on the pan, covered by the baking paper.

These kind of biscuits are used to grow up very much while baking, so you have to place them with a certain distance!

Bake the biscuits at 180°C for about 20 minutes (You know the times for your oven to bake biscuits!)

When the biscuits are baked, let them cool, so you can sprinkle with powdered sugar and a little of cinnamon!

As you can see in the pictures, these biscuits are not so small! But they are so good and light that you can enjoy one with any…guilt =)
