Kentucky Biscuit Muffins Recipe

This biscuit muffin recipe is out of my grandmother's baking collection. A fiercely gaurded family recipe, these biscuit muffins are best eaten with honey or jam. The sweetness of the fennel seeds in the garnish brings out the taste of this muffin and enchanes its texture. Kentucky biscuits muffins are best served fresh from the oven.
