Two-Ingredient Fluffy Biscuits
These homemade biscuits require just two main ingredients and a short baking time. The result is a tender, fluffy bite that pairs well with butter, honey, or gravy.
Instructions
-
Preheat and Prep
Preheat the oven to 450°F. Generously grease a baking pan with shortening. -
Mix Dough
Sift the self-rising flour into a mixing bowl without packing it. Add the heavy whipping cream and mix until the flour is moistened. The dough will be sticky, which is normal. -
Knead and Roll
Lightly flour a work surface or wax paper. Gently knead the dough, then roll or pat it to the desired thickness. -
Cut and Bake
Cut out biscuits with a cutter or cup. Place the biscuits close together in the prepared pan to encourage a taller rise. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until golden brown. -
Serve
Serve the biscuits immediately or while still warm.
Tips
Do not overwork the dough; a sticky consistency leads to fluffier biscuits.
