Yields: 10–12 biscuits
Ingredients
-
Flour: 2 cups White Lily self-rising flour
-
Cream: 1 cup heavy whipping cream
Step-by-Step Instructions
-
Preheat and Prep: Preheat your oven to 230°C (450°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
-
Mix the Dough: In a medium bowl, pour the heavy whipping cream over the self-rising flour. Stir gently with a spoon or fork just until the flour is moistened and a shaggy dough forms. Do not overmix, or the biscuits will be tough.
-
Fold and Shape: Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently fold the dough over itself 3–4 times to create light layers. Pat the dough down to about 3/4-inch thickness.
-
Cut the Biscuits: Use a floured biscuit cutter or a glass to press straight down into the dough. Pro-Tip: Do not twist the cutter, as this seals the edges and prevents them from rising.
-
Bake: Place the biscuits on the baking sheet so they are just touching for softer sides, or spaced apart for crispier edges. Bake for 10–12 minutes or until the tops are a light golden brown.
-
Optional Finishing Touch: While hot, you can brush the tops with a little melted butter for extra shine and flavor.

The Science: Explain to your followers that the heavy cream provides both the liquid and the fat, while the self-rising flour includes the leavening, which is why you only need two ingredients!
