Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 450°F and line a baking sheet. Whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt together. In a small bowl whisk the discard and buttermilk together then add the warm melted butter. Pour this into the dry ingredients and mix just until combined so the biscuits stay tender. Fold in the raisins. Scoop 1/3 cups of batter and drop onto lined baking sheet about 2" apart. Bake at 450°F for 14 minutes. Makes 7 palm sized biscuits.
