Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1.25 cups heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted, for brushing)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

Slowly pour in the heavy cream and use a spatula or your hands to gently mix the dough until it comes together. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 4

Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and pat it into a 1-inch-thick rectangle or circle. Do not knead the dough excessively to ensure tender biscuits.

Step 5

Using a biscuit cutter or the rim of a glass (approximately 2.5 inches in diameter), cut out biscuits and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Gently re-roll the leftover dough and cut out more biscuits until all the dough is used.

Step 6

Brush the tops of the biscuits with melted butter to give them a golden, glossy finish.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the tops are golden brown.

Step 8

Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm. Enjoy these biscuits with butter, jam, or as a complement to your favorite dish!
