Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Biscuit Cutter (or knife)
  • Baking Sheet

Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups Self-Rising Flour
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream
  • 1/2 cup Salted Butter, Melted

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C).
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the self-rising flour and melted butter. Mix until it forms coarse crumbs.
  • Pour in the heavy cream. Stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  • Lightly flour a clean surface. Turn the dough out onto the floured surface.
  • Gently pat the dough to about ¾ inch thickness. Use a biscuit cutter or a knife to cut out the biscuits.
  • Place the biscuits on an ungreased baking sheet. Space them out evenly.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Serve warm with your favorite toppings.

Notes

Don't Overmix: Overmixing the dough develops the gluten, resulting in tough biscuits. Therefore, mix until just combined.
Use Cold Items: If possible, use cold heavy cream and butter. This helps create a flakier biscuit.
Handle the Dough Gently: Gently pat the dough. Avoid pressing down too hard. This keeps the biscuits light and airy.
Space Them Out: Space the biscuits evenly on the baking sheet. This allows for even baking.
Serve Immediately: These biscuits are best served warm. Therefore, enjoy them fresh from the oven.
