They are hearty and fairly healthy, but also sweet. Mmmm! I got the recipe from http://www.tammysrecipes.com/homemade_cinnamon_raisin_biscuits but modified it a bit, as follows:
Classic Homemade Cinnamon Raisin Biscuits
Yield: 2 dozen biscuits (I got about 1 1/2 dozen)
Ingredients:
2/3 cup whole wheat flour
2/3 cup white flour
2/3 cup wheat germ
4 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cinnamon
3/4 cup butter
1 cup milk
1 cup raisins (we used currants)
Icing
Preheat oven to 450
I used the food processor to just pulse all the ingredients together, then dropped them by big tablespoons onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake at 450 degrees for 10-13 minutes. We made the icing after we took the biscuits out of the oven, then drizzled it on. It's just enough time to let them cool down a little bit!
Soft and Cinnamon-y Topping for Cinnamon Raisin Biscuits:
3 Tablespoons softened butter
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 3/4 cups powdered sugar
2-3 Tablespoons milk
Mix together 3 Tablespoons softened butter and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Add 1 3/4 cups powdered sugar and stir. Add about 2-3 Tablespoons of milk and mix. Drizzle over warm biscuits.
