Course: Breakfast
Cuisine: American
Keyword: Cinnamon Biscuits
Servings: 12 Biscuits

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 2 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 stick of butter or 8 tablespoons or 1/2 cup butter should be cold
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla flavoring
  • 1/2 cup raisins
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk

Topping for Biscuits

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 4 or 5 tablespoon milk

Instructions

  • In a large bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt.
  • Cut the butter in pieces and add to flour mixing until your flour looks like coarse crumbs.
  • Add sour cream, vanilla and mix well with a spoon. Fold in raisins and milk and make into a dough, adding flour if needed.
  • Pat or roll dough out (I just pat it out with my hands) on a hard surface and cut with a biscuit cutter. Place biscuits on a baking sheet. Bake in preheated 425 degree oven 12 to 15 minutes.

Topping for Biscuits

  • In a bowl whisk together the milk and sugar until you get the consistency you want to drizzle over the hot biscuits.

Notes

I use a 15 ounce vegetable can to cut these out because it makes large biscuits. You can use whatever size you cutter you want.
