How to Make Pinwheel Cherry Biscuits

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Place 1 teaspoon melted butter, 1 teaspoon packed brown sugar, and 4 cherry quarters in each section of a 12-cup muffin tin.
  3. In a large bowl, sift together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 cup granulated sugar.
  4. Add 1 cup heavy cream and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a 12 x 7 inch rectangle.
  6. Brush the dough with 2 tablespoons melted butter and sprinkle evenly with 1/2 cup chopped nuts (e.g., pecans, walnuts).
  7. Starting from the long side, tightly roll the dough like a jelly roll.
  8. Cut the roll into 1-inch thick slices. Press each slice, cut-side down, into a muffin cup, over the cherry mixture.
  9. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
  10. Let stand in the pan for 3 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool.
  11. Enjoy your delicious Pinwheel Cherry Biscuits!
