Easy, Tasty Sourdough Buttermilk Biscuits image

If you have a sourdough starter, this is a way to significantly improve the flavor of homemade bisuits. For this recipe, feed your starter with equal weights of flour and water for a very thick batter consistency.

Time 30m

Yield 14 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups self-rising flour (like Martha White- chilled)
1/3 cup butter (very cold)
1 cup buttermilk (cold)
1/4 cup sourdough starter (100% hydrated or thick paste consistency)
more self-rising flour, for surface

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.

I can't wait to try these biscuits with different toppings. I think they would be delicious with butter and honey, or with a savory herb butter.

These biscuits are a great way to use up leftover sourdough starter. I always have a jar of starter in my fridge, so it's nice to have a recipe that I can use it for.

Overall, I thought these biscuits were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't anything special either.

These biscuits were a bit too tangy for my taste. I think I would have preferred them with less buttermilk.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my biscuits didn't turn out as fluffy as the ones in the pictures. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These biscuits were a bit more dense than I expected, but they still had a nice flavor.

I'm not a huge fan of buttermilk, but I actually really enjoyed these biscuits. The sourdough flavor really balances out the tanginess of the buttermilk.

I've tried many sourdough biscuit recipes, but this one is definitely the best. The buttermilk adds a lovely tanginess that really takes them to the next level.
