First, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, almond flour, baking powder and salt. 

2

Grate cold butter over the dry ingredients, then place the bowl in the freezer to chill. Cold butter is key to flaky shortcakes!

3

Toss the flour with the butter, make a well, then pour in the wet ingredients.

4

Mix until you form a shaggy dough. It's okay if it still looks a bit shaggy and floury.

Transfer the dough to a piece of parchment paper and pat it into a 1-inch thick square.
