Cinnamon Biscuits

  • 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon  (or for added zip use the same amount of Backyard Patch Cinn-ful Dessert Blend)
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 Tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup cold butter, sliced
  • 1 cup plus 2 Tablespoons milk, divided 
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.  Combine the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.  Set aside. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt in a medium mixing bowl.  Cut the sliced butter into flour using a fork or pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.  Gently stir in the 1 cup milk just until a soft dough is formed.  Turn the dough out onto floured wax paper and knead gently 6 or 8 times.  Gather into a circle about 3/4" thick.  Use a floured cookie cutter or juice glass to cut circles of dough.

Place remaining 2 Tablespoons of milk in a small bowl. Dip the top of each biscuit first into the milk and then into the cinnamon sugar, twisting just a bit in the sugar to coat well.  Place on an ungreased cookie sheet, sugared side up. 

Bake for about 12 minutes or until the bottoms are golden brown.   Makes 2 dozen.
