Sour Cream Biscuits Recipe:
Total Time: 25 minutes
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Servings: 16 biscuits
Cost per serving: 8 cents
Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/3 cup sour cream
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Dough:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. Use a pastry blender or knives to cut in the unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
-
Mix the Wet Ingredients:
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together the milk and sour cream until smooth and well combined.
-
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
- Pour the milk and sour cream mixture into the flour mixture. Stir gently until a soft dough forms. Avoid overmixing to keep the biscuits tender.
-
Knead and Shape:
- If necessary, lightly knead the dough on a floured surface just until it comes together. Shape the dough into a disk.
-
Chill the Dough:
- Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours. Chilling the dough helps to relax the gluten and makes the biscuits more tender.
-
Preheat the Oven:
- While the dough is chilling, preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Prepare a large baking sheet by coating it with cooking spray or lining it with parchment paper.
-
Roll Out the Dough:
- Once chilled, remove the dough from the refrigerator and roll it out on a floured surface to about 1/2 inch thickness.
-
Cut Out the Biscuits:
- Using a 2 1/2 inch biscuit cutter, cut out rounds of dough and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Gather any scraps, reroll, and cut out additional biscuits.
-
Bake to Perfection:
- Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for approximately 12 minutes, or until they are golden brown and puffed up beautifully.
-
Serve and Enjoy!
- Once baked to perfection, remove the biscuits from the oven and allow them to cool slightly on a wire rack. Serve warm with butter, jam, honey, or your favorite toppings. These biscuits are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or as a delightful accompaniment to any meal.
These Sour Cream Biscuits are guaranteed to impress with their fluffy texture and rich flavor. Plus, at just 8 cents per biscuit, they’re not only delicious but also budget-friendly! So why wait? Gather your ingredients and get ready to enjoy these irresistible homemade biscuits. Happy baking! 🥐👨🍳
