Ingredients
  

  • 3 1/4 cups all purpose flour plus more for work surface
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 ½ tsp salt
  • 2 sticks butter frozen
  • 1 cup buttermilk cold, plus more for brushing
  • ¼ cup heavy whipping cream cold
  • 1 cup strawberries fresh, hulled and chopped
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tbsp cream
  • 2 tbsp water
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 450°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine 3 cups flour, baking powder, baking soda, granulated sugar and salt. Whisk until well blended.
    3 1/4 cups all purpose flour, 1 tbsp baking powder, ½ tsp baking soda, 2 tbsp granulated sugar, 1 ½ tsp salt
  • Grate FROZEN butter and add the butter into the bowl and toss to coat. Then pinch mixture with your fingers and mush the butter into the flour. (you can also use a pastry cutter if you have one but I think its easier with your hands) Continue this process until you see the butter is incorporated throughout the flour.
    2 sticks butter
  • Pour in buttermilk, cream and strawberries. Gently mix with hands just until combined. If biscuit dough feels really sticky, add an additional ¼ cup of flour, working it in until combined.
    1 cup buttermilk, ¼ cup heavy whipping cream, 1 cup strawberries
  • Sprinkle counter with a bit of flour and turn the dough out of the bowl onto the surface. Use lightly floured hands to gently shape the dough just until combined.
  • Using a lightly floured rolling pin, roll dough into a rectangle, until about 1-inch thick. Use a round 3-inch biscuit cutter to stamp out biscuits. (Tip: Do not twist the biscuit cutter. The twisting can cause the biscuits to not achieve a good enough rise). This recipe makes 12+ biscuits. You can combine scraps and re-roll as needed.
  • Place biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet. They should be just touching but not smashed against each other. Place them into the freezer to chill for at least 15 minutes while the oven is still preheating.
  • Take biscuits out of the freezer and, using a pastry brush, brush the top of each biscuit with a touch of buttermilk. Bake the frozen biscuits for 15-20 minutes. Turn baking sheet after 8 minutes. Bake until biscuits rise and tops are golden brown
  • While biscuits are baking, In a small bowl, combine the powdered sugar, milk and vanilla extract. Stir mixture until well combined and free of any lumps.
    1 cup powdered sugar, 2 tbsp cream, 2 tbsp water, ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • Remove biscuits from oven when done. Drizzle glaze over strawberry biscuits. Serve & Enjoy - no butter needed!
