Bakewell Cream Biscuits
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 4 teaspoons Bakewell Cream
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup shortening or 8 tablespoons cold, unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
- 1 1/2 cups cold whole milk
- Melted butter, for brushing
- Flaky salt, for sprinkling
- Preheat the oven to 475u0b0 F and lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper. In a large bowl, mix the dry ingredients together, then sift them.
- Add the shortening or butter and use a pastry blender or your fingers to cut it into the dry mixture until the fat is crumbly but large, pea- and walnut-sized pieces remain.
- Add the milk all at once, then stir quickly with a fork until the dough comes together.
- Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead a few times until the dough is smoother. Pat out until it's 1/2- to 3/4-inch thick, then use a biscuit cutter to make rounds. Brush with melted butter and sprinkle with flaky salt.
- Arrange on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 5 minutes, then turn off the heat, and leave in the oven for 5 to 10 minutes, until golden brown.
