How to Make Honey Shortcakes And Strawberries

  1. Allow 2 large eggs to stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, grease and flour six 3/4 to 1-cup individual tube pans or 10-ounce custard cups. Set aside.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
  4. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  5. In a medium mixing bowl, beat the eggs with an electric mixer on high speed for about 4 minutes, or until thick and pale yellow.
  6. Gradually add 3/4 cup granulated sugar, beating on medium speed for 3 to 4 minutes, or until light and fluffy.
  7. Beat in 1/4 cup honey.
  8. Gradually add the dry ingredients (flour mixture) to the wet ingredients, beating on low to medium speed just until combined.
  9. In a small saucepan, heat and stir together 1 cup whole milk and 2 tablespoons unsalted butter until the butter melts.
  10. Add the warm milk mixture to the batter, beating until just combined. Do not overmix.
  11. Pour batter evenly into the prepared pans or cups, filling about 2/3 full.
  12. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the tops spring back when lightly touched.
  13. Cool the shortcakes in the pans on a wire rack for 10 minutes.
  14. Carefully remove the shortcakes from the pans and cool completely on the wire rack.
  15. While the shortcakes cool, prepare the strawberries: In a medium bowl, combine 2 tablespoons honey, the zest of 1 lime, and the juice of 1/2 lime. Gently toss with 2 cups sliced fresh strawberries.
  16. To serve, place the shortcakes on a platter or individual plates. Spoon the strawberry mixture over the shortcakes.
  17. Top with a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.
