Yep, you read correctly, homemade biscuits using only two ingredients! All you need is cream and self-rising flour. The fat is in the cream, and the self-rising flour provides the salt and leavening. It can't get much easier than this! These biscuits were so much better than the baking mix in a box version, but just as easy!
Cut biscuits with a 2-inch cutter. (Next time I think I'll use a 3-inch cutter; these were a bit too small.)
Place biscuits close together on a lightly greased (no greasing necessary on my stoneware!) baking sheet.
Bake 10 minutes until golden brown. Add butter and ENJOY! We sure did!
Whipping Cream Biscuits (Tammy Algood: cookbook author)
2 cups self-rising flour
1 cup whipping cream (I had heavy whipping cream on hand)
Preheat oven to 450 degreesF. Combine flour and cream in a mixing bowl, stirring just until blended. (The dough will be a little stiff.) Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface and knead 10 times. Roll to 1/2-inch thickness and cut with a 2-inch cutter. Place biscuits close together on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake 10 minutes. Makes 12 biscuits.









Easy enough! That's a perfect recipe for me, lol! And it looks delish. Found you thru Inspiration Friday at The Picket Fence. :)

What a fantastic recipe. Just when you think things can't get any easier, it does. The biscuits look perfect.
ReplyDeleteThese just made me smile. I have been craving biscuits for days. I'll be making these tonight for sure!
ReplyDeleteCan you believe I've been looking for a quick easy biscuit recipe? Of course you can! Could this recipe be used for drop biscuits. Yep that's me, trying to take a shortcut on your already super simple biscuits!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great recipe to have in the files. Despite the ease with which they're made they really do look tasty. I hope you have a great weekend. Blessings...Mary
ReplyDeleteSerious? Only 2 ingredients? That just doesn't even seem possible. How cool is that!!! You can bet we'll be making these! Thanks!!!
ReplyDeleteIn Australia we call these "scones" and eat them with butter and jam or jam and cream. I have a similar recipe just with a couple more ingredients! This one is so simple and they do look tender and light!
ReplyDeleteI love it that these are so simple to make!
ReplyDeleteI've never made biscuits at home before ... I'd love to try this one ... such a simple recipe and the biscuits look great!!!
ReplyDeleteThe texture of your biscuits looks heavenly. How easy can it get? I am going to have to try these. I love biscuits, but I am not a fan of dry crumbly ones. These look fantastic. Your leprechaun granola was so cute. Bet everyone loved it. Does everyone at your house know how lucky they are??!
ReplyDeleteA fuss free and delicious recipe!
ReplyDeleteWhat an unbelievable recipe! I love it when things are easy and delicious. That one's a great find!
ReplyDeleteThe easier the better. They look delicious too!
ReplyDeletePerfect biscuit (especially for a weeknight meal when you want some with supper but you don't feel like messing with lots of ingredients).
ReplyDeleteI love it. Sometimes simple really is better!!
Just wanted to drop a not to say that I made your Lemon Shortbread Truffles and posted them today! They were fantastic! I served them for a luncheon and everyone wanted to bring extras home. Thanks.

ReplyDeleteWho doesn't love a good biscuit??? I am dying to try these! (with some butter and honey please...)
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful biscuits! That is an art form! 2 ingredient biscuits? You can't get better than that. This recipe is bookmarked!
ReplyDeleteWow! You weren't lying when you said two ingredients!!!
ReplyDeleteI have seen recipes like this one and have always wondered how they turn out. Your biscuits look perfect, so now I know...can't wait to try it myself.
ReplyDeleteWOW, now that is my kind of cooking Ÿ
ReplyDeleteSue those are perfect looking! I'm hungry. I shouldn't be visiting while my stomach is growling!

These look really good! I love homemade biscuits, and I love EASY!! I am hosting a giveaway for the "Baked" cookbook, you should enter! WOuld love to see the twist you could put on their recipes!
ReplyDeletePerfection!!!!
ReplyDeleteSue, thanks for correcting me - I typed that wrong, it was the lemon juice that I did differently, not the zest. I have corrected it on my post. Yum, yum and yum! My married daughter was asking why she didn't get any after she saw my post.
ReplyDeleteHi Sue-I wish I had self-rising flour...I would make for breakfast tomorrow morning! So easy and looks just delicious!Thank you for sharing:)
ReplyDeleteGreat recipe for a busy mom! Thanks - glad I found your blog through the bake sale.
ReplyDeleteThese sound yummy,I love the simplicity!
ReplyDeleteWhat?! 2 ingredients is all it takes?! I'm so glad I found your lovely blog! Your munchkins are too cute. Thank you from your newest follower! I hope you'll check out my blog at http://www.yummymummykitchen.com
ReplyDeleteThanks!
Biscuits are one of my ultimate weaknesses to begin with, let alone a recipe with only 2 ingredients? You're killing me!
ReplyDeleteYou never, ever, ever knead biscuits!!! You "layer" them by lightly folding over using no pressure. Two or 3 times for the whipping cream biscuit. Try to get a hold of some southern flour which is lower in gluten. White Lilly, Martha White, or Southern Biscuit. Good Luck from a Southern Lady who has made biscuits for 40 years ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tips!
Deleteyou can make it four ingredient biscuits and they are just as easy if you don't happen to have self rising flour. Just add a tablespoon of baking powder and a tsp of salt. Can't wait to see how they turn out!
ReplyDeleteGood to know:)
DeleteI made these tonight using 1-1/2 tsp. baking soda and 1/2 tsp. salt per cup of flour and they turned out great! This will probably be my new go-to recipe for biscuits. Thanks for sharing it!
ReplyDeleteGreat! Thanks for sharing:)
DeleteMade these and they are wonderful! So easy and tender. Thank you for the recipe!
ReplyDeleteThanks for this really easy recipe. I made 20 but all were AOK with a bit reduced oven time. This was first attempt at making these, I'll be sure to make the right number next time.
