Jam Drop Biscuits Recipes

JAM-FILLED BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Combine the sugar and cinnamon in a shallow dish. Dip each biscuit in the melted butter and roll into the cinnamon sugar. Place the coated biscuits on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Use your thumb or the bottom of a small tumbler to make an impression into each biscuit. Fill each indentation with about 2 teaspoons of jam. Bake until golden brown, 13 to 16 minutes. Serve warm.

SIMPLE JAMMY BISCUITS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Rub the flour, sugar and butter together until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Alternatively, you can do this in the food processor. Add enough egg to bring the mixture together to form a stiff dough.
• Flour your hands and shape the dough into a tube, about 5cm in diameter. Cut into 2cm-thick slices and place on a large baking sheet. Space them out as the mixture will spread when baking.
• Make a small indentation in the middle of each slice with the end of a wooden spoon, and drop a tsp of jam in the centre. Bake for 10-15 mins until slightly risen and just golden. Cool on a wire rack.

JAM DROP BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Line 2 baking trays with non stick baking paper.
• Beat butter, sugar and vanilla essence until pale and creamy. Add egg and beat until well combined. Add the flour gradually and stir until it is all mixed together properly.
• Flour hands. Roll teaspoonfuls of mixture into balls. Place on tray about 5 cm apart. With a lightly floured finger, create a small indention in the centre of each ball. Spoon half a teaspoon into the centre of each biscuit.
• Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown. Wait 30 minutes for biscuits to harden.
