Total Time 22 minutes
Serving Size 8 biscuits

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups self-rising flour Also contains baking powder and salt.
  • 1 cup heavy cream Can also be labeled as heavy whipping cream.

Instructions

Preparation

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and position a rack in the center.
  • In a mixing bowl, pour the heavy cream over the self-rising flour and stir with a fork until a rough dough forms; it will be slightly sticky.
  • Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently 4–6 times just to bring it together, avoiding over-kneading.
  • Pat or roll the dough to about 1 inch thick. Use a biscuit cutter, press straight down, and lift straight up to keep edges clean.
  • Place biscuits on a baking sheet, touching for taller sides or spaced for crisper edges.
  • Bake for 10–12 minutes or until the tops are golden brown.

Serving

  • Remove from the oven and serve warm with jam, butter, or sausage gravy.

Notes

Storage: Keep leftover biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 48 hours. Refrigerate if not consumed within 2 days. For freezing, cool completely, freeze on a baking sheet until firm, then transfer to a freezer bag for up to 3 months. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 8–10 minutes.
