Steps:
- Heat oven to 450°F.
- All ingredients should be well chilled.
- In a bowl, add buttermilk to the starter and stir well to break up and dissolve the starter.
- Add the flour to a large, clean bowl and grate the butter into the flour stirring often or cut the butter into small pieces and mix with the flour using a pastry blending tool or a fork. Add the buttermilk mixing in more and more flour until all the flour is involved and the dough is sticky, gummy and on the verge of being "too wet". Add additional buttermilk if needed or flour.
- Turn out the dough onto a floured surface and with flour on your hands make into a very soft dough, sprinkling a little extra self-rising flour over it all as needed until no longer sticky. Try not to work the dough at all or anymore than necessary for it to be consistent throughout. Pat out dough to 1/2-inch thickness.
- Cut with floured 2 1/2-inch round cutter. Place on cookie sheet or greased cast iron skillet.
- Bake at 450°F for 15 minutes or until golden brown. Brush with melted butter if desired and serve warm.
Tips:
- Use fresh sourdough starter: Sourdough starter is the key to making these biscuits light and fluffy. Make sure your starter is active and bubbly before using it. You can use a discard starter or feed your starter a few hours before using it.
- Don't overwork the dough: Overworking the dough will make the biscuits tough. Mix the ingredients until just combined, then stop mixing.
- Let the biscuits rest before baking: Letting the biscuits rest for a few minutes before baking will help them rise more evenly.
- Bake the biscuits at a high temperature: Baking the biscuits at a high temperature will help them brown and crisp on the outside while staying soft and fluffy on the inside.
Conclusion:
These easy sourdough biscuits are the perfect addition to any meal. They're light, fluffy, and full of flavor. They're also a great way to use up leftover sourdough starter. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy biscuit recipe, give these sourdough biscuits a try.
