Quick to whip up in just 10 minutes of prep time, these crowd-pleasing biscuits are a must-try for any home baker looking for a deliciously simple treat.
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and baking powder until well combined.
Gradually pour the heavy whipping cream into the dry ingredients while stirring gently with a wooden spoon or spatula, just until a soft dough forms. Avoid overmixing to ensure tender biscuits.
Lightly flour a clean surface and turn the dough out onto it. Pat or gently roll the dough into a rectangle about 1/2 inch thick.
Using a biscuit cutter or the rim of a glass (about 2.5 inches in diameter), cut out biscuits from the dough. Press straight down without twisting to allow the biscuits to rise evenly while baking.
Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch of space between each one. Gently gather and re-roll the remaining dough scraps to cut out more biscuits.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on top.
Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy warm with butter, jam, or honey!
