Feather-light tea biscuit dough with swirls of cinnamon-raisin filling inside. Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour |
4 teaspoons baking powder |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup shortening |
1 cup milk |
1/3 cup butter, softened |
3/4 cup packed brown sugar |
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon |
1/2 cup raisins |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease 12 muffin cups or line with paper muffin liners.
2. In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse cornmeal. Add milk all at once to dry ingredients and stir with a fork until a soft dough is formed. Turn dough out onto lightly floured surface and knead gently 8 to 10 times. Roll out to a 12 inch square.
3. Gently spread butter over dough. Combine brown sugar, cinnamon and raisins. Sprinkle evenly on top of dough. Roll up dough lightly like a jelly-roll. Seal edge. Cut into twelve 1 inch thick pieces. Place in prepared muffin tins.
4. Bake in preheated oven for 14 to 18 minutes, until golden. Remove from heat immediately. Serve warm.
