Foodie Friday Finds~ in the Crock Pot

Crock-pot Cinnamon Biscuits 

• 1 recipe of your favorite biscuit dough (I used Homemade Whole-Wheat Baking Mix mixed with enough milk to make it into a biscuit dough.)
• 1/4 cup butter melted
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1/2 cup raw sugar (you could also use brown sugar or regular sugar)
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon                        

Thoroughly grease the crockpot with butter or shortening (I use palm oil shortening). Melt butter in the microwave or on the stovetop and stir vanilla into it. Pour into a small bowl.

Combine sugar and cinnamon in another small bowl. Roll out biscuit dough and cut into biscuits with a biscuit cutter or glass. (Or, be lazy like me, and just pull off pieces and pat them into the shape that somewhat resembles a circle.  )

Dip biscuits into melted butter mixture, then into cinnamon sugar mixture. Put in crockpot in a single layer.

Cover the crockpot with a tea towel or paper towel (to reduce condensation) and put lid on.

Turn crockpot on low and bake biscuits for 2-3 hours until done.

You can glaze with a powdered sugar & milk glaze, if you’d like. Or you can leave them unglazed like I did. I thought they were plenty sweet without the glaze!
