Preheat the oven to 425°.
Step 2
Weigh or lightly spoon flours into dry measuring cups; level with a knife.

Combine the flours, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and nutmeg in a bowl, stirring with a whisk; cut in butter with a pastry blender or two knives until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
Step 4
Combine the pumpkin and buttermilk in a bowl, stirring with a whisk. Add the pumpkin mixture and chopped pecans to the flour mixture, stirring just until combined.
