The taste of a sweet raisin tea biscuit with the consistency of a muffin. Top them with a simple icing sugar/maple extract glaze and you are ready to go !These are a lovely accompaniment to a pot of earl gray tea. Spread with butter and a dollop of jam.
LET'S GET STARTED !

1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon of baking soda

1/2 cup pure maple syrup
1/2 cup milk (full fat or 2% works fine)
1/4 melted unsalted butter
1/2 raisins
GLAZE
1/2 icing sugar (sifted)
1/4 teaspoon maple extract
2 teaspoons milk

BAKE 15-18 minutes. Use toothpick in center to check for doneness. If it comes out sticky, back in they go for a little bit longer baking time.
