Whole-Wheat Cinnamon Raisin Drop Biscuits
These cinnamon raisin drop biscuits are so yummy and super easy to make.
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup whole-wheat flour
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 2 tbsp regular cane sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 2 tbsp dairy or dairy-free cold butter
- 1/2 cup raisins
- 1 cup and 2 tbsp dairy or dairy-free milk
- Glaze ingredients: 1/2 cup powdered sugar, 1/2 tsp vanilla extract, and 2 1/2 tsp milk (dairy or dairy-free)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, combine all of the dry ingredients (flours-cinnamon).
- With a pastry blender or other alternative method as described above, cut the butter into the flour mixture until coarse crumbs are formed.*All you have to do is to make sure that the butter is cut into very tiny pieces*
- Stir in the raisins. Then add in the milk and combine until a soft dough forms. Place dough (2 tbsp for each biscuit) onto parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for about 15 minutes until browned.
- You can pretty much glaze the biscuits after you take them out of the oven. Just combine all the the glaze ingredients until very smooth. Drizzle the amount you want over the biscuits. *Let the biscuits sit for a few minutes after glazing them before eating - so the glaze can firm up some* These biscuits are best eaten warm..
