Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes
  • 3/4 cup cold heavy cream
  • 1 pound fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (for strawberries)
  • 1 cup heavy cream, whipped

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Gradually add the cold heavy cream, stirring until just combined to form a shaggy dough. Do not overmix.
  5. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat it into a 1-inch thick rectangle.
  6. Fold the dough in half, then pat it into a 1-inch thick rectangle again. Repeat this folding and patting process two more times.
  7. Cut out biscuits using a 2-inch round cutter. Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
  9. While the biscuits bake, gently toss the sliced strawberries with 1/4 cup sugar in a bowl. Let them sit for about 10 minutes to macerate.
  10. Once the biscuits are baked and slightly cooled, split them in half horizontally.
  11. Spoon the macerated strawberries over the bottom half of each biscuit.
  12. Top with whipped cream and then the biscuit tops. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For extra tender biscuits, ensure your butter and cream are very cold.
  • You can add a tablespoon of lemon zest to the biscuit dough for a brighter flavor.
  • Adjust the sugar in the strawberries based on their sweetness.
