Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 0.75 cup Milk
- 0.25 cup Maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon Maple syrup (for glaze)
- 1 teaspoon Milk (for glaze)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir to mix well.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Pour in the milk and gently mix just until the dough comes together. Avoid overmixing to keep the biscuits tender.
On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a 10x6-inch rectangle about 1/2-inch thick.
In a small bowl, mix together the maple syrup, brown sugar, and cinnamon to make the filling.
Spread the maple mixture evenly over the rolled dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edges.
Starting from one long side, carefully roll the dough into a tight log. Press the seam to seal.
Using a sharp knife, cut the log into 8 equal slices and place the slices cut-side-up on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the biscuits are puffed and lightly golden.
While the biscuits cool slightly, whisk together the powdered sugar, maple syrup, and milk to create the glaze.
Drizzle the glaze over the warm biscuits and serve immediately. Enjoy!
