Old-Fashioned Sour Cream Biscuits
Delicate and buttery biscuits with a delicious tang. These biscuits are perfect for dipping in soups, stews, chili, or cooking on top of a chicken pot pie!
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ cup butter
- 1 ½ cup full fat sour cream
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 ℉ (220 ℃).
- In a large bowl, mix together the flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.
- Cut ¼ cup of cool butter into cubes, about 1 cm.
- Mix this into the dry ingredients and crumble it in with your finger tips, (like you would for a pie crust).
- Stir in the sour cream until the mixture comes together. Then mix with your hands until it just comes together. Don't overmix, or knead the dough, or it will not be as tender.
- Tip the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and press it out to about ½-inch thickness.
- Cut the dough into biscuits using a biscuit cutter, large round cookie cutter, or an upside down cup.
- Place the biscuits onto a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes or until a light golden brown.
