How to Make Banana Coffee Biscuits

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  3. Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted margarine using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. In a separate bowl, mash 1 ripe banana. Add 1 tablespoon instant coffee granules and 1/4 cup milk. Stir until well combined.
  5. Add the wet banana mixture to the dry flour mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Lightly flour your work surface with 1 tablespoon of flour.
  7. Turn the dough out onto the floured surface and gently knead 3-4 times. Avoid over-kneading.
  8. Roll the dough to 1/2-inch thickness.
  9. Use a 2-inch biscuit cutter to cut out biscuits.
  10. Place biscuits onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or lightly greased.
  11. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the biscuits are lightly golden brown.
