CINNAMON RAISIN BISCUITS



Cinnamon raisin biscuits image

These easy buttermilk biscuits are layered with cinnamon sugar and vanilla-soaked raisins! Brush with buttermilk before baking and sprinkle on more cinnamon sugar. Top with a cinnamon icing!

Provided by Heather Perine

Categories     Breakfast

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/2 cup (85 g) raisins
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 cups (360 g) all purpose flour
5 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
½ cup (1 stick, 113 g) unsalted butter ( cold, cut into tablespoons)
1 ¼ cups (300 mL) cold buttermilk
2 Tablespoons granulated white sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 1/2 cups (170 g) confectioners sugar ((powdered/icing))
2-3 Tablespoons milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Steps:

  • Soak raisins. In a small bowl, stir together vanilla and raisins. Let soak until ready to use.
  • Prep oven and pan. Preheat your oven to 450f. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mat. Or use a round cake pan (lightly grease). You can also bake in a cast iron pan.
  • Combine dry ingredients. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt.
  • Cut in butter. Using your fingertips, two knives, or a pastry blender, cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the butter are pea-sized. You should still see visible solid pieces of butter.
  • Add raisins. Stir in the soaked raisins and any leftover vanilla extract.
  • Add buttermilk. Pour in your cold buttermilk and stir to combine. It will form a shaggy, sticky dough.
  • Make swirl/topping. This is going to be layered into the biscuit dough and some will be sprinkled on top. In a small bowl mix together the cinnamon and sugar. Reserve some for sprinkling on top.
  • Shape the biscuits. Empty the bowl onto a lightly floured surface. Pat or roll the dough into a 1/2-inch thick and sprinkle on some cinnamon sugar. Then fold the dough in half. Repeat this process 3 more times to create layers.
  • Cut out the biscuits. Pat the dough out into a 3/4 inch to 1-inch thick circle (I like thick biscuits so I make the dough about 1-inch thick). Using a biscuit cutter (or the rim of a large drinking glass) press straight down into the dough. You can also use a sharp knife or pizza cutter and just cut the biscuits out into squares. Do not twist the cutter, which can cause your biscuits to come out lopsided. Place biscuits on prepared baking sheet or in baking pan. Place the biscuits next to each other on the cookie sheet so they touch.
  • Top the biscuits. I use a pastry brush and lightly brush on the leftover buttermilk that is in my measuring cup and brush the tops of the biscuits. I then sprinkle on the remaining cinnamon sugar.
  • Bake the biscuits. Bake for about 15 minutes until golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on pan for about 5 minutes. Remove biscuits to continue to cool on a cooling rack.
  • Make icing. In a small bowl, combine the powdered sugar, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon. Adjust consistency if needed. Drizzle on biscuits once cool.

HOMEMADE CINNAMON RAISIN BISCUITS



Homemade Cinnamon Raisin Biscuits image

The cooler weather here in Oklahoma has put me in a baking mood. I make these biscuits every Christmas morning. They are so quick and easy to make even though they are homemade. The egg and butter make them special. The smell while they are baking is out of this world. And they are just as good left over for the next mornings...

Provided by Yvonne Elliott

Categories     Other Breakfast

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 3/4 c all purpose flour
4 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 c sugar
1 tsp salt
1 tsp cream of tartar
1 c crisco shortening
2 eggs, beaten slightly
1 1/2 c milk
1 c raisins
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 c butter, melted
POWDERED SUGAR GLAZE
1 1/4 c powdered sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla
2 Tbsp butter or margarine, softened
1 - 3 tsp water, to obtain desired consistancy

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Butter biscuit pan(s) and set aside. You will need a pan big enough to accomadate 20 biscuits. Combine the first 5 ingredients. Cut in the Crisco shortening till the mixture looks crumbly.
  • 2. Add the eggs and milk and mix well. Then fold in the raisins and cinnamon just till they are distributed through the dough. Don't over mix.
  • 3. Turn out onto a floured surface and knead a few times. It isn't necessary to knead a lot. Gently pat out the dough to 1" thickness. Cut out with a 2 1/2 inch biscuit cutter or just use a knife and cut dough into 2 to 2 1/2 inch squares. Place the biscuits, touching each other, in the pre-greased pan(s).
  • 4. Melt the butter in a small glass bowl and using a pastry brush, liberally brush each biscuit top with the butter. If any is left just pour it over the top. Bake at 450 degrees for 22 to 25 minutes. When done remove from oven and let cool for about 10 minutes. Then using the pastry brush, brush the glaze liberally on top of each biscuit. Again, if any is left just pour it on top of the biscuits as you can't have too much glaze. These are great warmed up slightly in the microwave as leftovers. Enjoy.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh cinnamon and raisins will give your biscuits the best flavor. If you don't have fresh cinnamon, you can use ground cinnamon, but be sure to use a light hand, as it can be overpowering.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make your biscuits tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help the biscuits rise and create a more flaky texture.
  • Bake the biscuits in a hot oven: A hot oven will help the biscuits rise quickly and create a golden brown crust.
  • Serve the biscuits warm: Cinnamon raisin biscuits are best served warm from the oven. You can enjoy them plain or with your favorite toppings, such as butter, honey, or jam.

Conclusion:

Cinnamon raisin biscuits are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their warm spices and sweet raisins, they are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you are looking for a special breakfast or snack, give these cinnamon raisin biscuits a try. You won't be disappointed!
