A SIMPLE 2- INGREDIENT BISCUIT RECIPE. BOOM!

1/5/2024

I was watching TV the other day and while switching channels I saw an old woman making biscuits, indicating they were only 2 ingredients. I was like, “Say what? I kept watching and as she indicated, they were really 2-ingredients and so easy to make. So, I decided to make them the next day to taste for flavor. Who can forget 2 c. of flour and 1 ½ c. whipping cream?

​It was worth it and I could add anything I want like cheddar cheese and herbs. Use them at breakfast with butter or jelly or make biscuit cheese burgers for lunch like my grandson did, smile. . Boom! (Credit: I forgot the lady’s name or the show, but thanks for this simple recipe, smile)
 
Category:  Breads
Approx. Prep and Cook Time:  Under 30 Minutes
Approximate Cost:    $3.66 or .33 cents per biscuit
Difficulty Level:  Easy
Allergens, Other: (For Gluten Free use GF Flour)     
Servings Approx. 11 Biscuit’s
​
INGREDIENTS
2 c. Self-Rising Flour (SIFTED) $1.00
1 ½ c. Heavy Whipping Cream $2.50
Egg wash to brush before baked (optional) (.16)
 
DIRECTIONS
Butter and parchment a baking pan, set aside. Start your oven at 450 degrees
Add the sifted flour to a bowl.
Pour the heavy whipping cream into the bowl gradually about 3 to 4 times and mix with your hands or a wooded spoon each time you add heavy whipping cream.
Mix only until both ingredients are combined. Flour your counter area and drop the sticky dough. It will still be sticky, however, it will become manageable once you start to knead it and eventually fold it before cutting the biscuits.
Drop the dough and shape it into about 1” flat with your hands.
Next, get a biscuit cutter (or a cup of sorts if you don’t have one), place some flour on the counter rub the cutter part with in the flour and start cutting the round biscuits.
Place them in the buttered and/or parchment paper baking dish and make sure that they touch each other tightly. (I gave them too much space and they expanded more rather than get taller but they were delicious)

Finally, brush them with egg wash so they will look golden and crispy.
Bake for about 15 minutes at 400 to 450 degrees. (As always, watch over the 15 minutes, since each oven is calibrated differently and you do not want to burn the biscuits.
