Blackberry & Cream Biscuits

Ingredients:

  • 1 pint fresh blackberries
  • 2 cups self rising flour
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1.5 cups heavy cream
  • unsalted melted butter, to taste

For the icing (optional):

  • 1/2 cup confectioners sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon milk

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 500 degrees. In large bowl, combine the self rising flour & sugar. Stir in the heavy cream. Gently fold in the blackberries. If you’re having trouble folding in the blackberries, add a couple tablespoons more cream to make it easier.

Make drop biscuits or lightly flour a work surface, pat dough into a rectangle on the floured surface, & cut into squares (as detailed in this method here)

Place in a cast iron skillet or a 9×13 casserole dish if you don’t own a cast iron. (If you don’t own a cast iron, they’re my fave thing to cook with!). Brush with melted butter.

Bake at 500 for 17-20 minutes. Let cool for a few minutes & then drizzle with the icing if desired.
