Ingredients

For the Biscuits:

• 1 1/3 cup (160 grams) all-purpose flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled
• 1/2 cup buttermilk (plus extra if needed)

For the Strawberries:

• 1 cup chopped fresh strawberries
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• Pinch of salt
• 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

For the Whipped Cream:

• 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream (very cold)
• 1 tablespoon powdered sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Preparing the Biscuits:

1. Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and line a quarter sheet baking pan with parchment paper.
2. Mix the dry ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder.
3. Blend in the butter: Cut the chilled butter into small pieces and blend it into the flour mixture using a pastry cutter or two knives until the mixture becomes crumbly.
4. Form the dough: Gradually add the buttermilk, kneading slightly until a dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add a bit more buttermilk.
5. Shape the biscuits: On a floured surface, knead the dough 3-4 times, then pat it out to 1″ thickness. Cut out 3-4 biscuits using a floured 3″ biscuit cutter.
6. Bake: Arrange the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 9-10 minutes until lightly golden.

Preparing the Strawberry Filling:

1. Mix the strawberries: In a bowl, combine the chopped fresh strawberries with granulated sugar, a pinch of salt, and fresh lemon juice. Set aside to allow the flavors to meld.

Preparing the Whipped Cream:

1. Beat the cream: In a clean, cold bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream until soft peaks form.
2. Add sugar and vanilla: Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream and continue to beat until the mixture is fluffy.

Assembling the Strawberry Biscuits:

1. Slice the biscuits: Once the biscuits are slightly cooled, slice them in half.
2. Add the filling: Top each half with a generous dollop of whipped cream and a spoonful of the strawberry mixture.
3. Serve and enjoy: Serve immediately for the best taste experience.
