Time 45m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 cups sliced fresh strawberries
½ cup white sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon baking soda
⅓ cup shortening
¾ cup buttermilk
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 cup heavy whipping cream
¼ cup honey

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Combine strawberries and sugar in a small bowl; cover and refrigerate until serving.
  • Combine flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda in a large bowl. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in buttermilk just until moistened. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead 8 to 10 times.
  • Divide dough in half. Gently pat each portion into an 8-inch circle on the 2 prepared baking sheets. Brush each with butter.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 13 to 15 minutes. Remove to wire racks to cool, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • While shortcakes cool, beat cream in a large bowl until it begins to thicken. Add honey; beat until stiff peaks form.
  • Place 1 cooled shortcake on a serving platter; layer with 1/2 of the strawberries and whipped cream. Top with remaining shortcake, strawberries, and cream. Serve immediately.
