EatingWell: A shortcake easy enough for kids to bake

EatingWell on

Meanwhile, combine strawberries and lemon curd in a medium bowl.

Split the shortcakes in half and serve each with 1/4 cup of the strawberries and about 2 teaspoons whipped cream.

To make ahead: Store cooled shortcakes airtight for up to one day; reheat in a 250 F oven just before serving if desired.

Recipe notes: Try white whole-wheat flour in place of all-purpose flour in baked goods. It's made from hard white wheat berries, which makes it lighter in color and flavor than regular whole-wheat flour, but with the same nutritional properties. Look for it near other whole-grain flours. For the best flavor, store in an airtight container in the freezer.
