These melt-in-your-mouth 2-ingredient biscuits are about as simple as baking gets—no kneading, no fuss, and surprisingly soft.
🥐 2-Ingredient Biscuits
🧾 Ingredients
- 2 cups self-rising flour
- 1 cup heavy cream
(That’s it!)
👩🍳 Instructions
1. Preheat oven
Set to 220°C (425°F) and line a baking tray.
2. Make the dough
Mix the flour and cream until a soft dough forms. Don’t overmix—it should be slightly sticky.
3. Shape
Turn onto a floured surface, gently pat to about 2–3 cm thickness, and cut into biscuits (or just scoop rustic rounds).
4. Bake
Place on tray and bake for 10–12 minutes until golden on top.
✨ Why they work
Self-rising flour already contains baking powder and salt, while the cream provides both fat and liquid—so you get tender, fluffy biscuits without extra ingredients.
🍽️ Optional upgrades
- Brush tops with melted butter for extra flavor
- Add a little sugar if you want a slightly sweet version
- Mix in cheese or herbs for a savory twist
⚠️ Quick tip
If you don’t have self-rising flour, you can make your own:
- 1 cup flour + 1½ tsp baking powder + ¼ tsp salt
If you want, I can show you a 3-ingredient version with yogurt or a flakier, bakery-style method that gives layers instead of soft crumb.
