Ingredients:
| Ingredient | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Self-rising flour | 2 cups |
| Sugar | 1 tablespoon |
| Heavy whipping cream | 1 1/2 cups |
Instructions:
-
Preheat your oven to 500 degrees Fahrenheit (260 degrees Celsius).
-
Combine self-rising flour, sugar, and heavy whipping cream in a medium bowl, stirring until the dough comes together to form a ball.
-
Transfer the dough onto a surface dusted with additional flour to prevent sticking.
-
Fold the dough in half and knead it gently 5 to 7 times, incorporating just enough flour to prevent sticking to your hands.
-
Roll out the dough to a thickness of about 1/2 inch (1.3 cm) using a rolling pin.
-
Cut the dough into biscuits using a 3-inch (7.5 cm) biscuit cutter coated with flour to prevent sticking.
-
Arrange the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or coated with cooking spray, leaving at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) of space between each biscuit.
-
Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and are cooked through.
-
Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
Tips:
- For extra flakiness, handle the dough as little as possible.
- Ensure your heavy whipping cream is cold to achieve the best texture.
- Serve these biscuits warm with butter, honey, or your favorite jam for a delightful treat.
