Number of Servings:

Ingredients:

  1. 1 cans - all-purpose flour
  2. 1/2 cups - old-fashioned oats
  3. 1/3 cups - slivered almonds
  4. 1/3 cups - + 2 Tbsp sugar
  5. 2 teaspoons - baking powder
  6. 1/2 teaspoons - kosher salt
  7. 6 tablespoons - (3/4 stick) chilled, unsalted butter
  8. 1 cups - chilled heavy cream
  9. 1 1/2 teaspoons - vanilla extract
  10. 4 cups - fresh strawberries
  11. 1 tablespoons - Grand Marnier or other orange liqueur

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375•. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 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 tsp. 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 Tbsp. 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 Tbsp 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 Tbsp sugar, and 1/2 tsp 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.
