2 c. all-purpose flour
3 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1 stick butter
1/2 c. raisins
1/2 c. applesauce
1/4 c. sour cream
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1-1/2 tsp. sugar
1/2 c. confectioners' sugar
3 tsp. hot coffee

Preheat oven to 400°F.

In large bowl, combine flour, baking powder and baking soda. Mix until well blended. With fork, blend in the butter into pea-sized pieces. Add raisins to flour mix. Stir applesauce and sour cream together and blend into the mix until dough holds together in a ball.

In small bowl, stir together the cinnamon and sugar, sprinkle over the dough ball. Knead once or twice just until cinnamon-sugar is streaked through the dough. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface. Pat or roll out to about 1/2-inch thick. Cut into 2-inch rounds. Place on cookie sheet.

Bake for 15 minutes or until biscuits are slightly brown.

Meanwhile, mix powdered sugar with the coffee to make a glaze. Drizzle over the hot biscuits.

Perfect morning breakfast while opening gifts.
