BROWN SUGAR GLAZED PINEAPPLE BISCUITS RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Brown Sugar Glazed Pineapple Biscuits Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by msippigrl

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

GLAZE:
1 cup self-rising flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons vegetable shortening (I used Crisco)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2/3 cup whole milk
1/2 cup chopped fresh pineapple, drained on paper towels
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons light brown sugar, packed
Dash of salt, optional

Steps:

Preheat oven to 425° F. Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper. Melt the shortening and butter together in the microwave. Set aside. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together both the flours, baking powder, and cinnamon; add the melted mixture, milk, and pineapple, stirring just until combined. At this point, you can just drop dough by rounded tablespoons onto the baking sheet about 1" apart and bake for 13-15 minutes, or until tops are lightly browned. (OR) as I did.. I sifted a little flour over the top of the dough then used a spoon to pull the floured side against the side of the bowl so I could sift a little flour in the bottom of the bowl. Flour hands and pull off pieces of dough (or use a spoon) about the size of a small lemon, roll it around in your palms a few times, then place them on the baking sheet about 1" apart. Bake for 13-15 minutes, or until tops are lightly browned. Meanwhile, make the glaze.. Melt the butter in a small bowl in the microwave until fairly hot. Stir in brown sugar until thoroughly combined. Reheat for a few seconds to dissolve sugar, if needed. Spoon (or brush) the glaze over tops of hot biscuits. Serve warm.

BROWN SUGAR BISCUITS

These yummy rolls aren't really biscuits, but they're named after rolls I used to get at my local bakery. My family thinks they're sweet enough without icing, but a simple powdered sugar one would be nice.

Tips for Making Brown Sugar Biscuits:

Use cold butter: This will help the biscuits rise properly and give them a flaky texture.
Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will make the biscuits tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
Chill the dough before baking: This will help the biscuits hold their shape and rise evenly.
Bake the biscuits in a hot oven: This will help them brown and rise quickly.
Brush the biscuits with melted butter before baking: This will give them a golden brown color and a crispy crust.

Conclusion:

Brown sugar biscuits are a classic Southern treat that is easy to make and loved by people of all ages. By following these tips, you can make perfect brown sugar biscuits every time.
