Thyme and Pumpkin Biscuit Bites with Cranberry Chicken Salad
- 2 cups Flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 4 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 1- 1/2 teaspoon Fresh Thyme, Chopped
- 1/4 cups Butter, Cold, Cut Into Small Pieces
- 1/2 cups Pumpkin Puree
- 13 cups Cold Milk
- 2 cups Cooked Chicken Or Turkey Breast, Cut Into 1 Inch Pieces
- 1 whole Rib Celery, Chopped Fine
- 2 Tablespoons Finely Chopped Onion
- 1/2 cups Dried Cranberries
- 1/2 cups Mayonnaise
- 1/2 teaspoons Hot Madras Curry Powder
- 1 pinch Cracked Black Pepper
- For the biscuits: Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In a large bowl whisk together the flour, salt, baking powder and thyme.
- With a pastry cutter or 2 forks cut in the butter until it is crumbly in pea sized pieces.
- Set aside.
- In a small bowl mix together the pumpkin and milk.
- Add the pumpkin mixture slowly into the flour until it forms a nice dough.
- Using a small amount of flour on your work surface to keep the dough from sticking, press out the dough into a disk 1/2 inch thick.
- Use a small round cutter to cut out biscuits.
- Gather the dough scraps and flatten them into a disk and cut out any additional biscuits that you can.
- Place them onto a lightly greased baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes until the bottoms are slightly browned.
- Let cool then cut in half and add the chicken salad.
- For the Cranberry Chicken Salad: Add all of the salad ingredients to a large bowl and gently mix together.
- Sometimes I find that I need to add a little more mayo, but I always start out with a smaller amount because I dont like it too goopy.
- Add 1 tablespoon of salad per mini biscuit.
