Plum-Oat Drop Biscuits Recipe

Plum-Oat Drop Biscuits Recipe

  • 2 tablespoons white sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/3 cups rolled oats
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 3/4 cup chopped pitted prunes (dried plums)
  • 1 cup fat-free milk
  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
  2. Combine sugar and cinnamon together in a bowl. Mix flour, oats, baking powder, 1 tablespoon cinnamon-sugar mixture, and salt together in a separate bowl. Cut butter into flour mixture using a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse crumbs; fold in prunes.
  3. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture; add milk to the well. Stir mixture with a fork just until dough is moistened. Drop dough into 12 mounds, about 1/4 cup each, on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle remaining cinnamon-sugar over each dough mound.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven until biscuits are golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Serve immediately.
