Sourdough Angel Biscuits Recipes

SOURDOUGH BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and baking soda. Grate butter using the large holes of a box grater. Stir into the flour mixture. In a medium bowl, whisk together sourdough starter and buttermilk. Add to the flour mixture and stir using a rubber spatula until a soft dough forms. Working on a lightly floured surface, knead the dough 2-3 times until it comes together. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough into a 1 1/2-inch thick rectangle. Cut out 8-10 rounds using a 2-inch biscuit or cookie cutter. Place biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet. Place into oven and bake for 14-18 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve warm.
