Strawberry Shortcake Gluten Free

Oh that wonderful springtime dessert: Strawberry shortcake.

I know everybody has their favorite taste memory, yes taste memory. You can shut your eyes and remember that delicious pie or cake from your childhood; you know you can!

Well I am remembering my mamaw’s homemade biscuits with strawberry jelly/jam. Piping hot out of the oven with sweet strawberry goodness.

My eyes are closed, my lips are smiling and I just sighed a big ahhhh.  This recipe reminds me of those biscuits, moist, not too sweet and just right with fresh strawberries and whipped cream on top.  This dish not only tastes good but is soooo pretty.

The coconut whipped cream on top is beyond fantastic, in my opinion.

Enjoy this gluten free strawberry dessert.
