Ingredients
- 2 cups (260g) all-purpose flour plus more for dusting, measured by weight or using the spoon and sweep method*
- 2½ teaspoons baking powder
- 1 tablespoon (12g) granulated sugar
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- 1½ cups heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons melted butter optional
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 475°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Whisk together until well combined.
- Switch to a wooden spoon or silicone spatula and stir in the cream until a shaggy dough forms and no dry flour remains at the bottom of the bowl.
- Turn the dough out on a lightly floured surface and knead the dough, folding it over on itself 5 or 6 times until the dough comes together, adding more flour if needed.
- Pat the dough out to about ¾-inch thick. Use a 2-to-3 inch biscuit cutter to cut the dough into rounds. After the first cutting, gather the scraps and repeat to get 1 or 2 more biscuits out of the dough.
- Transfer the biscuits to your prepared baking sheet and brush the tops lightly with melted butter (reserve remaining melted butter).
- Bake on the center rack of your oven for 11 to 14 minutes, until the tops of the biscuits are golden brown.
- Transfer the biscuits to a cooling rack and brush them with the remaining butter. Serve and enjoy!
Notes
- *Correct flour measurement is very important in this recipe. For best results, measure by weight or the Spoon and Sweep Method (stir the flour in your container to fluff it up and then spoon it into your measuring cup, sweep excess off with the flat of a knife).
- Yield: This will make approximately 10 2-inch biscuits or 6 to 7 3-inch biscuits.
- Nutritional information: Approximate nutritional information is for 8 biscuits.
