These warm, buttery biscuits are infused with sweet-tart cranberries and a hint of cinnamon. Baked in a skillet, they’re soft inside, slightly crispy on the edges, and perfect for breakfast or a cozy treat.

Ingredients

Scale

For the biscuits:

  • 2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup (115 g) cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • ¾ cup (180 ml) buttermilk (or milk with 1 teaspoon vinegar)
  • ½ cup (75 g) dried cranberries

For the topping:

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar mixed with ½ teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a cast-iron skillet or an oven-safe skillet with butter or cooking spray.
  2. Mix the dry ingredients:
    • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
  3. Cut in the butter:
    • Add the cold butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Add the wet ingredients:
    • Stir in the buttermilk until just combined. Gently fold in the dried cranberries. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Shape the biscuits:
    • Scoop about ¼ cup of dough for each biscuit and place them close together in the prepared skillet. You should have about 8-10 biscuits.
  6. Bake:
    • Brush the tops with melted butter and sprinkle with the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Serve:
    • Serve warm with butter, honey, or a drizzle of glaze for extra sweetness.

Notes

  • Substitute dried cranberries with raisins, chopped dried apricots, or chocolate chips for variety.
  • These biscuits are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
