Instructions
Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, sugar, and
cinnamon.
Cut in the cold butter with a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture looks crumbly (like
coarse crumbs).
In a separate bowl, mash bananas and stir in buttermilk + vanilla.
Pour the banana mixture into the flour mixture. Gently fold until just combined—don’t
overmix!
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Pat into a 1-inch-thick round. Cut with a
biscuit cutter (or a floured glass) and place on baking sheet.
Bake for 12–15 minutes, until golden brown on top.
Optional glaze (if you want a sweeter vibe):
Whisk ½ cup powdered sugar with 1–2 tsp milk and drizzle over warm biscuits.
Notes
Banana Bread Biscuits 🍌✨
Think of these as the happy middle ground between banana bread and a soft, fluffy biscuit.
Perfect with butter, honey, or a drizzle of glaze.
