Ingredients

  • FOR THE BISCUITS:
  • 2 cups Self-Rising Flour
  • 1/4 cups Coconut Oil, Butter, Or Crisco
  • 3/4 cups Buttermilk
  • 1-1/2 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoons Nutmeg
  • 1/4 cups Raisins
  • FOR THE GLAZE:
  • 1 teaspoon Melted Butter
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1/2 cups Powdered Sugar

Method

  • For the biscuits:
  • 1. Heat oven to 450 F. Lightly coat a baking sheet with spray canola oil. Gather your favorite biscuit tools: rolling pin, pastry blender, biscuit cutter, silicone mat!
  • 2. Measure flour into a large bowl. Cut in shortening (coconut oil, butter or Crisco) with a pastry blender or 2 knives until crumbs are the size of peas. Blend in just enough buttermilk with a fork until dough leaves sides of bowl.
  • 3. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface. Sprinkle with cinnamon, nutmeg and raisins. Knead gently 2 to 3 times. Roll dough into 1/2 inch thickness. Cut the dough using a floured 2-inch biscuit cutter.
  • 4. Place biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet 1-inch apart for crisp sides and almost touching for soft sides. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until golden brown.
  • For the glaze:
  • While biscuits are baking, mix melted butter and vanilla into the powdered sugar to make the glaze. Stir well until glaze is smooth. Pour glaze over biscuits hot out of the oven.
  • Kitchen blessings and happy cooking!
