These grain-free pumpkin biscuits are everything you want in a biscuit—fluffy, moist, tender, subtle enough to be a vehicle for jams and butters. And they're stupendously healthy!

As well as being grain-free, they have almost zero sugar and are packed with carotenoids from the pumpkin puree. You can truly feel great about enjoying these biscuits as a breakfast, snack or dessert.

If you haven't gotten on the coconut flour bandwagon yet, I highly recommend climbing aboard! Coconut flour can be found at Whole Foods and most natural foods stores, and even though it's a pretty penny, a little goes a long way. Super high in fiber and protein, coconut flour is also a nutritional bang for your buck. These coconut flour biscuits won't leave you with an intense craving for more sugar the way traditional wheat-flour goodies do.

Whip these up in less than 30 minutes and serve them along with almond butter and natural strawberry preserves...I guarantee you will be the hero of your household!
