HARDEE'S CINNAMON RAISIN BISCUITS



Hardee's Cinnamon Raisin Biscuits image

When I lived in the mid-west, I use to get these biscuits as a morning breakfast on occasion....well, on more occasions than I should have. I loved the warm tender biscuits with cinnamon swirlled in it and the sweet icing melting down. Having moved to California 12 years ago, I have really missed these as there are no Hardee's out here. I've found a copy cat recipe for it and I'm on cloud 9!! The person who posted this on another site said she use to work at Hardee's so this is the real-deal ! I can't wait to make these for my husband and kids!

Time 35m

Yield 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 cups self-rising flour
3/4 cup shortening
2 cups milk or 2 cups buttermilk
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/3 cup granulated sugar
3 teaspoons cinnamon
1 cup raisins

Steps:

  • Mix flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda and sugar.
  • Blend in shortening with a fork until mixture is fine.
  • Add milk and stir until just mixed. Only add enough milk to form dough. Add raisins and mix.
  • Add cinnamon and mix until swirled through batter. Do not mix batter any more than you have to.
  • Scrape batter onto well-floured surface. Flour top and pat down with hands until 1/2-inch thick.
  • Cut with 2-inch cutter and place on greased baking pan.
  • Bake at 400°F for 10-15 minutes until golden brown.
  • Frost with powdered sugar glaze icing.

Tips:

  • Use cold butter: This will help your biscuits be flaky and tender. You can freeze the butter for 30 minutes before grating it, or you can chill it in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
  • Don't overwork the dough: Overworking the dough will make your biscuits tough. Mix the ingredients just until they come together.
  • Let the dough rest before baking: This will help the biscuits rise and be more tender. Let the dough rest for at least 15 minutes, or up to 30 minutes.
  • Bake the biscuits in a hot oven: This will help them rise quickly and evenly. Preheat the oven to 450°F before baking the biscuits.
  • Brush the biscuits with melted butter before baking: This will help them brown and be more flavorful. You can also sprinkle the biscuits with cinnamon sugar before baking.

Conclusion:

Buttermilk biscuits are a classic Southern comfort food. They are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They can be served with butter, honey, jam, or gravy. Buttermilk biscuits are also a great addition to soup or stew. These cinnamon raisin buttermilk biscuits are a delicious and easy-to-make variation on the classic buttermilk biscuit. The cinnamon and raisins add a sweet and flavorful twist to the biscuits.
