Melt-in-your-Mouth Cream Biscuits

Adapted from Joy of Cooking, these Melt-in-your-Mouth Cream Biscuits are now one of our favorites. I decided to try whole-wheat pastry flour for these and wow, what a difference it makes on the texture for biscuits. These are great for breakfast with jam or as a side at dinner.

Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 cups whole-wheat pastry flour plus extra for patting out the dough
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/4 cups heavy cream
  • milk for brushing the tops (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
  2. In a large bowl, use a fork to whisk together the pastry flour, baking powder, and salt. Pour in the cream and stir to combine just until the dry ingredients are moistened.
  3. Pick up the dough with your hands and pat it down into one big square about 1/2 inch thick on a large baking sheet. Use extra flour if necessary to keep it from sticking to your hands.
  4. Cut the dough into 16 equal squares, and then spread them out on the baking sheet so they are all at least a couple inches apart. Brush the tops with milk if desired (for browner tops).
  5. Bake until a deep golden brown on the bottom, about 10 - 12 minutes. Serve warm with butter and jam or store at room temp in an air-tight container.
