Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a small bowl toss berries with sugar
and set aside. In a mixing bowl combine flour, salt, baking powder,
baking soda and cinnamon. Using your fingers, rub in butter until
mixture forms coarse crumbs. Add just enough milk for dough to come
together. Divide into 4 pieces and shape each into a nice round
biscuit. Transfer biscuits to a parchment or waxed-paper-lined baking
sheet. Bake 25 minutes, until tops are golden and bottoms are lightly
browned. Split hot biscuits and spoon berries on bottom halves. Top
berries with a dollop of whipped cream and replace biscuit top. Serve
immediately, garnished with mint. This recipe yields 4 servings.
