Buttermilk Strawberry Shortcake in a Jar

Strawberries are one of the best things in the whole world. Especially when they are in season! I love to serve my family fresh fruit on a daily basis and this easy from scratch dessert is perfect!

You could easily allow your older children to help you make this one too and once your child knows how to use a knife, slicing strawberries makes for good practice!

Buttermilk Strawberry Shortcake

I served these in a mason jar, but a plate or any dessert cup will work just fin.

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 6 tablespoons butter, softened
• 1/2 cup buttermilk
• 4 cups fresh strawberries, sliced into bite-sized pieces
• whipped cream

In a mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt.

But in the butter until the mixture is crumbly.

Add in the buttermilk until the mixture turns into a nice dough. Only mix until just combined.

Use a large cookie scoop to scoop the batter onto a greased baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes or until the biscuits are slightly brown.

Cool the biscuits before putting together your shortcakes.

In a pint sized mason jar, break one shortbread biscuit into several pieces and add to the bottom of the jar.

Add a layer of strawberries on top of the biscuit and top with a little whipped cream.

Follow with another broken biscuit, more strawberries, and top with whipped cream.

Enjoy immediately. Makes 4 pints or 4 servings.
