How to Make Raisin Tea Biscuit at Home?

A tea biscuit rather than a cookie — a scone in all but name, 250 calories at $2.29. It is also one of the few items on the Tims menu declaring no milk and no eggs.

Tips

  • Do not twist the cutter. Twisting seals the edge and the biscuit rises lopsided or not at all.
  • Leave lumps of butter. Those pockets are what make it flaky rather than dense.
  • A rough, shaggy dough is correct. Kneading a tea biscuit smooth makes it tough.

Variations

  • Leave the raisins out for a plain tea biscuit.
  • Add cheese for a savoury version.
  • Use buttermilk instead of water for a richer biscuit, though it stops being dairy free.

Serving Ideas

  • Split and buttered, with a steeped tea at $2.29 — which is what it is named for.
  • Best within a few hours. Tea biscuits go dry faster than any cookie.

Raisin Tea Biscuit Questions

How much is a Raisin Tea Biscuit?

$2.29 at Tim Hortons.

Is a tea biscuit the same as a scone?

Essentially, yes. It is the Canadian name for the same thing — a quick bread raised with baking powder rather than yeast.

Does it contain dairy or egg?

Tim Hortons declares only wheat for this item, so no milk and no eggs. That is a declaration rather than a certification, and the bakery handles both nearby.

Are Tim Hortons cookies baked fresh?

They arrive par baked and are finished in store through the day rather than mixed on site. What came out in the morning is freshest.

What else is on the cookies menu?

Sixteen items with prices and calories on the cookies menu, including the butter tarts and the boxed sets at $7.99 and $14.49.
