Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter (cold, cut into cubes)
- 0.75 cup Whole milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar
- 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Butter (melted)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon until well combined.
Add the cold cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
In a small bowl, mix the milk and vanilla extract. Gradually add this mixture to the flour-butter mixture, stirring with a wooden spoon until a soft dough forms.
Lightly flour a clean surface and turn the dough out onto it. Knead the dough gently 4–5 times until it holds together.
Roll out the dough to a thickness of about 1/2 inch. Using a flower-shaped cookie cutter (or a round one if unavailable), cut out biscuits and place them on the prepared baking sheet about an inch apart.
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and the remaining teaspoon of ground cinnamon. Brush the tops of the biscuits with melted butter and sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture generously over them.
Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden and puffed.
While the biscuits bake, prepare the glaze by whisking together powdered sugar and heavy cream in a small bowl until smooth and drizzle-able.
Remove the biscuits from the oven and allow them to cool slightly on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes.
Drizzle the glaze over the warm biscuits and serve immediately. Enjoy the soft, spiced treat!
