I baked these last night, and they were delish!
Sourdough Biscuits
Prep time
Cook time
Total time
Recipe type: Bread
Serves: 12
Ingredients
- 1 cup flour
- 1½ tsp. sugar
- 1 tsp. baking powder
- ¼ tsp. salt
- ¼ cup butter or shortening
- 1 cup sourdough starter
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425F.
- Sift flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt into a large bowl. Cut in fat with a pastry blender until mixture looks like bread crumbs. Make a well in the center and pour in starter. Stir until all flour is combined with the starter.
- Flour a board generously. Turn dough onto board and kneed just until smooth. Pat dough out about ½ inch in thickness and cut with a biscuit cutter (I just used a small inverted glass).
- Place biscuits on a lightly oiled cookie sheet. Cover pan with waxed paper, and place it in a warm, draft-free place, allowing biscuits to rise for about ½ hr.
- Bake 20-25 minutes until lightly browned. Serve immediately with lots of butter.
- Makes about 1 dozen biscuits.
