Winterberry Shortcake
- 1 cup Flour, Unbleached All-purpose
- 2 Tablespoons Sugar
- 1/4 teaspoons Salt
- 1-1/3 teaspoon Nutmeg, Ground
- 1/4 cups Butter, Frozen
- 5 Tablespoons Milk
- 1 whole Egg, Whisked And Divided
- 2 Tablespoons Coarse Sugar, Or As Much Needed
- 3/4 pounds Frozen Berries
- 1/4 cups Berry Jam
- Whipped Cream, To Serve
- Preheat oven to 400u0b0F.
- Mix flour, sugar, salt and nutmeg in a bowl. Grate frozen butter into flour mixture, stir and mix with hands until combined (or use a food processor). Add milk and 1 tablespoon of whisked egg, pulse or stir until everything just starts to come together.
- Turn onto a floured surface, roll out into a large rectangle-ish shape, about 1/8" thick. Fold the dough in half, then in half again. (This will yield a grand biscuits-like consistency). You should have a long rectangle-ish piece about 1" thick. Cut biscuits with floured cookie cutters or a juice glass and arrange on a parchment-lined pan. Brush with remaining egg and top with coarse sugar.
- Bake 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown on top and bottom. Set aside to cool.
- Strain thawed berries; add their juice into a small saucepan. Set berries aside.
- Add jam to saucepan. Cook juice and jam over medium heat until simmering, turn to low, stirring constantly for another 5 minutes until it reaches jam-like consistency. Remove from heat, add thawed berries. Chill until ready to use.
- Split the biscuits open, top with berries and whipped cream.
