Pre-heat the oven to 160 deg C (325 deg ) – line two baking sheets with baking paper
Sift together the Flour, Baking Powder, Pumpkin Spice and Salt – add the Butter and mix until it resembles breadcrumbs – add the Sugar and stir through
Beat together the Eggs and Buttermilk – stir in the cooked mashed Pumpkin
Add the Pumpkin mixture to the Flour mixture and mix until combined ( it’s a sticky business ! )
Divide the dough into two and press into the prepared baking sheets – sprinkle with extra Pumpkin Spice – bake 30 – 40 minutes until a tester comes out clean
Remove from the oven – lower the temperature to 100 deg C {200 deg F)
Slice into pieces after a cooling period of 15 minutes – spread out on the baking sheets (you might need more baking sheets now or dry them in batches) – dry out for 2 – 3 hours with the oven door left open very slightly
Remove from the oven, let cool completely and store in an airtight container
