THE BEST CLASSIC STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE



The Best Classic Strawberry Shortcake image

For our simple and iconic shortcake, we discovered a great double-stacking technique that creates super light and high biscuits that are easy to split. This makes them easy to fill without crumbling. A simple recipe like this one allows its ingredients to shine, so use the very best berries you can find.

Time 50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup heavy cream, plus more for brushing
2 tablespoons sour cream
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting (see Cook's Note)
1/3 cup granulated sugar, plus more for sprinkling
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, cut into 1-inch cubes and frozen
1 pound strawberries, hulled and sliced
1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons sour cream
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • For the shortcakes: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Whisk the heavy cream, sour cream and vanilla in a small bowl; refrigerate until ready to use. Pulse the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt in a food processor until combined. Add the butter; pulse until the mixture looks like fine meal. Pour in the chilled heavy cream mixture and pulse until just combined.
  • Lightly flour a work surface and dump the dough onto it. Pat out the dough 1/2-inch thick. Cut out as many biscuits as you can with a 2 1/2-inch biscuit cutter. Then pat the remaining dough out to 1/2-inch thick again. Cut more biscuits; you should get 12.
  • Put 6 of the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops generously with cream, then top each cream-brushed biscuit with one of the remaining biscuit rounds. (This makes it easier to split once they are baked.) Brush the top of each biscuit stack with more heavy cream and sprinkle 1 teaspoon granulated sugar on each biscuit.
  • Bake the biscuits until golden and puffed, about 30 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack and cool completely.
  • Meanwhile, for the topping: Toss the strawberries and 2 tablespoons of the brown sugar in a medium bowl.
  • Just before serving, beat the heavy cream, sour cream, the remaining 2 tablespoons brown sugar and vanilla in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, about 2 minutes.
  • Split the shortcakes in half. Spoon half the cream on the bottom of the biscuits, top evenly with the strawberries and top with the remaining cream. Put each biscuit top on and serve.

EASIEST STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKES



Easiest Strawberry Shortcakes image

Enriched with a little cream and sugar, jumbo-size refrigerator biscuits become shortcakes worthy of the season's best berries. Since there are more biscuits in the tube than you'll need, you could bake extras at the same time and save them for breakfast the next day.

Yield 2 Servings; can be doubled

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 10.8-ounce tube large refrigerator biscuits (Such as Pillsbury Grands Buttermilk Biscuits)
1 tablespoon plus 1/2 cup chilled whipping cream
3 tablespoons sugar
1 1-pint basket strawberries, hulled
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Place 2 biscuits on ungreased baking sheet. Brush tops with 1 tablespoon cream; sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar. Bake until golden, about 14 minutes. Cool 5 minutes.
  • Place half of berries in bowl. Add remaining 2 tablespoons sugar; crush berries with fork. Slice remaining berries; add to bowl. Mix in lemon juice. Whip remaining 1/2 cup cream to soft peaks.
  • Slice warm biscuits in half horizontally. Place bottoms on plates. Spoon most of berry mixture over, dividing equally. Cover with tops. Top with cream and remaining berries.

Tips:

  • Use fresh strawberries for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh strawberries, you can use frozen strawberries, but thaw them completely before using.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • Don't overmix the biscuit dough. Overmixing will make the biscuits tough.
  • Bake the biscuits until they are golden brown. If they are not cooked through, they will be doughy and not very tasty.
  • Serve the shortcakes warm with fresh strawberries and whipped cream. You can also add a drizzle of honey or maple syrup for extra sweetness.

Conclusion:

Strawberry breakfast shortcakes are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast treat. They are perfect for a special occasion or a lazy weekend morning. With a few simple ingredients, you can make these shortcakes in no time. So next time you are looking for a sweet and satisfying breakfast, give strawberry breakfast shortcakes a try.
