Raisin Tea Biscuits Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Popular Recipes. (Raisin Tea Biscuits Recipe). Moist, lightly sweet biscuits are just perfect for breakfast or a cup of tea in the afternoon. This is as close as I could get to the store bakery version. My husband and kids loved these just as much as the store bought biscuits. We make a lactose free version with vanilla soy milk and margarine, but have made the milk variety for others. Recipe works perfectly in both options.
