Step-by-Step Instructions

  3. Cut in the cold, cubed unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Gently fold in the pumpkin puree and milk until just combined, avoiding overmixing.
  5. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface, knead gently 3-4 times, and roll to about 1 inch thick.
