This is really an EASY Sugar Free Strawberry Shortcake .
I like that it reminds me of the season.

I love that this can be made without adding any additional sugar to the recipe.
All of the sugar that is in this shortcake comes from the strawberries.
 

One average strawberry has about .6 grams of sugar in it.
For those of us counting the carbohydrates, there are about net .7 in each strawberry. Also, if you are counting calories, each strawberry has under five.

Strawberry Shortcake is basically a cake and a biscuit.

While we may think it is really a cake, it can also be described as a glorified biscuit.
However, you could also classify this as a cake if you really wanted to.

What makes a Strawberry Shortcake unique is that it is part biscuit.
We call it a shortcake because the biscuit ingredients form a 'shortened dough'. That is, the liquid ingredients do just what they need to do, or the minimum, when it comes to moistened the dough. As a result we get a crumbling cake.

Perhaps it is the moisture that we layer the biscuit with that makes for the perfect shortcake.

As mentioned, the biscuit is a dry one. That is, we add just enough liquid ingredients to it to hold the biscuit together just enough to not fall apart.

However, the liquids that are not part of the biscuit itself that balance out the dryness.
The strawberries are juicy and sweet which helps. Also we use whipped cream to help moisten the biscuit and pick up those crumbs when we eat it.

You will need to use a couple of recipes that I have already posted in order to make this.

The first recipe is for the biscuits. The biscuits are the essential part of this recipe that will make for the cake.

Also, you will need my Sugar Free Whipped Cream recipe.

Sure, you could use any whipped cream. However, this is how to make it without adding a bunch of sugar.

A note about strawberries.
In a perfect world, strawberries would be in season and readily available. However, in this world, the may be an instance to have to resort to frozen strawberries rather than the fresh kind. In saying that, I would like to remind you that you should use the kind of strawberries that are NOT packaged in sugar.

Whole Frozen Strawberries

Add some sugar free strawberry jam to this recipe for an extra taste of 'wow'.

You really could use jam with or without the strawberries.

About the biscuit ingredients.

You can use a regular biscuit recipe or premade biscuits if you are not concerned with carbohydrates.Simply skip my instructions for low carb biscuits and use your own biscuits instead.

However, you can make this recipe gluten free by using gluten free flour instead of regular flour. Or, you can make this recipe low carb by using low carb Carbalose flour. You can sub in Almond flour if Carbalose in unavailable.

I also provide you with a quick low carb biscuit recipe on the biscuit recipe page.

The recipe calls for Carbquik Baking Mix

This is the baking mix that contains Carbalose. Use it for biscuits, pancakes, and waffles etc.
