Strawberry Shortcake Biscuits Recipe

30 Minutes or Less, Breakfast

These Strawberry Shortcake Biscuits started as a simple summer tradition and turned into something people ask for by name. Golden, flaky biscuits split open and layered with sweet berries and fresh whipped cream — there is nothing quite like it when the strawberries are at their peak.

Ingredients

2 (6oz) pkgs Pioneer® Buttermilk Biscuit & Baking Mix
1/2 cup whole milk
4 tbsp granulated sugar, divided
4 tbsp cold salted butter, cubed, plus more melted for brushing
2 cups fresh strawberries, sliced
Whipped cream, for serving

This Biscuit Recipe for Strawberry Shortcake delivers the tender, buttery layers that make every bite worth savoring, and Pioneer Buttermilk Baking Mix makes the biscuits easy enough to whip up any night of the week.

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prep Pan

    Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

  2. Combine Dry Ingredients

    Combine the Pioneer Buttermilk Biscuit & Baking Mix and 2 tablespoons of sugar in a large bowl.

  3. Cut In Butter and Form Dough

    Add butter and cut in, using a pastry knife or fingertips, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in milk until a dough just forms.

  4. Shape and Cut Biscuits

    Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently fold in half 2-3 times. Pat dough into a 3/4-inch-thick circle and cut out biscuits using a 2-3-inch round cutter.

  5. Bake and Butter Biscuits

    Place onto the prepared baking sheet and bake until golden-brown, about 10-12 minutes. Brush warm biscuits with butter and set aside to cool slightly.

  6. Macerate the Strawberries

    Meanwhile, toss sliced strawberries with remaining sugar in a small bowl and set aside.

  7. Assemble and Serve

    To assemble, slice warm biscuits in half. Layer each bottom half with strawberries and a dollop of whipped cream. Top with the biscuit tops and serve immediately.
