Delicious Raisin Tea Biscuits Recipe

Ingredients

• 0.67 cup raisins
• 1 cup hot water
• 3.25 cups all-purpose flour
• 3 tablespoons white sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.75 cup cold butter, cut into pieces
• 1 cup milk
• 1 egg egg
• 1 tablespoon water

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. Soak raisins in hot water for 10 minutes to plump them up; drain and set aside for later use.
3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in cold butter using two knives or a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in milk until just moistened, then gently fold in the pre-soaked raisins. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Pat or roll the dough to a thickness of 3/4 to 1 inch. Use a biscuit cutter to cut out 8 biscuits and place them on the prepared baking sheet. In a small bowl, whisk together an egg with 1 tablespoon of water to create an egg wash; brush the tops of each biscuit with the egg wash.
4. Bake in the preheated oven until the biscuits are golden brown on top, approximately 15 minutes. Enjoy your homemade raisin tea biscuits!
