Newfoundland Molasses Raisin Tea Buns-cfniervt
Ingredients
3 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
2 tsp rounded baking powder
1 tsp rounded baking soda
2 tsp cinnamon, optional
1 tsp freshly ground nutmeg, optional
3/4 cup cold butter, cut in cubes
1 1/2 cup raisins (light or dark, your preference)
1/2 cup fancy molasses
1/2 cup milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
In a food processor or in a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and nutmeg.
Cut in or pulse in in the butter until the mixture resembles a fine meal.
Remove to a large bowl and stir in the raisins.
Make a well in the center of this mixture.
Mix together the molasses, milk and vanilla.
Pour into the well and mix only enough to form a dough ball.
On a floured surface, roll to 1 inch thickness and cut out buns with biscuit cutter. You may need a little more flour on top as well to prevent sticking to the rolling pin.
Place in a parchment lined 9x13 baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes. Baking time may vary a little depending on the size of your biscuit cutter.
This recipe makes about 12 tea buns.
