Two Ingredient Biscuits

Something I have never been able to make is biscuits. They normally turn out flat and flavorless. I usually just use Bisquick and make drop biscuits when we want them. I gave up on the old fashion way of making biscuits with Lard or Crisco.

My husband mentioned a video on FB he saw of how to make biscuits with just two ingredients. This caught my attention. I jumped up from my recliner and said, “I have these two things so I’m going to give it a try”. 

In no time, I had biscuits ready to pop in the oven. Fifteen minutes later, we were eating biscuits with butter and honey. “Move over Bisquick, these were the best biscuits I have ever made”.

Two Ingredient Biscuits

• 2 Cups- Self Rising Flour.
• 1 1/2 Cups of heavy whipping cream. 

Mix with a fork or spoon until combined and place on a floured surface. Dust you hands with flour and knead and fold the dough. Patten out with your hands, not a rolling pin. Make the dough about 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. Use a biscuit cutter to cut the biscuits but do not twist or spin the cutter. Just press down and release. This keeps the sides from sealing and preventing them from rising correctly. (I’m 55 and just learned about this). 

Brush the tops with some of the whipping cream and Bake 400 degrees for 12-15 minutes or until desired browning

No need to wait on your oven to preheat all the way. Just turn the oven on and place the biscuits in the warm oven when they are ready to be cooked. This will keep your biscuits from burning on the bottom. (Just learned that too). 

They turned out light and fluffy on the inside and light and crispy on the outside. I think they were perfect. Still a little lopsided but who cares. They were delicious.
