Almond Oat Strawberry Shortcakes Recipes

ALMOND-OAT STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or just use sipat.
• Pulse flour, oats, almonds, 1/3 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt in a food processor until finely ground.
• Add butter; pulse until only pea-size pieces remain.
• Add 1/2 cup cream and 1 teaspoons vanilla; pulse until large moist clumps form.
• Transfer to a work surface.
• Knead until dough comes together, about 4 turns.
• Pat into a 4x6" rectangle. Halve lengthwise, then crosswise into thirds.
• Arrange on prepared baking sheet. Brush with cream; sprinkle with 1/2 tablespoons sugar.
• Bake, rotating sheet halfway through cooking, until golden brown around edges and a tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 20 minutes.
• Set biscuits on a wire rack; let cool.
• Meanwhile, combine strawberries, 1 tablespoons sugar, and Grand Marnier, if using, in a large bowl. Toss to coat. Let strawberries sit, tossing often, until juices release. Whisk 1/2 cup cream, 1/2 tablespoons sugar, and 1/2 teaspoons vanilla in a small bowl until peaks form.
• Cut warm or room-temperature biscuits in half; place bottom halves on plates. Divide whipped cream and strawberries over. Top with remaining biscuit halves.

ALMOND SHORTCAKES

Steps:

• Whisk 1 cup flour, 1 1/2 cups almond meal, 1 tablespoon baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk 2/3 cup milk, 1 egg and 1/3 cup vegetable oil, then stir in the flour mixture. Drop scoops of the dough on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, sprinkle with sugar and bake at 475 degrees F until golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Split the shortcakes and fill with whipped cream and blackberries.

ALMOND-CORNMEAL STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter and flour 6 jumbo muffin tins (each 1-cup capacity); set aside.
• In a food processor, blend 1/2 cup sliced almonds with sugar until finely ground. Add butter, eggs, vanilla, and salt; process until combined, scraping down sides of bowl as necessary (mixture may appear curdled at this point). Add flour and cornmeal; pulse just until moistened.
• Divide batter evenly among prepared muffin tins; sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup sliced almonds. Bake until golden and a toothpick inserted in centers comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool cakes 5 minutes in pan; remove from pan, and transfer to a rack to cool completely.
• Hull and quarter strawberries. In a medium bowl, combine with 1/3 cup sugar. Let stand until syrupy, tossing occasionally, at least 20 minutes (and up to 6 hours, covered and refrigerated).
• In another medium bowl, using an electric mixer, whip cream with remaining 1 tablespoon sugar until soft peaks form.
• With a serrated knife, split cooled shortcakes horizontally. Place bottom halves on serving plates. Dividing evenly, layer with sweetened strawberries and whipped cream; cover with shortcake tops.
