Description

A buttery, flaky biscuit using sourdough starter, Greek yogurt, and half-and-half. This is a rich biscuit!

Ingredients

  • 2 cups White, Unbleahed Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • ½ teaspoons Kosher Salt
  • ¼ teaspoons Baking Soda
  • ¼ cups Greek Yogurt, Plain
  • ¼ cups Half-and-half
  • 1 cup Sourdough Starter
  • ½ cups Butter, Cold

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.

In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda. In another bowl, mix together yogurt and half-and-half. Mix with a whisk or fork until smooth. Mix the sourdough starter into the yogurt mixture. Add the yogurt mixture to the flour mixture. Grate in 1 stick (1/2 cup) of cold butter. Mix the dough until just combined.

Turn the dough out onto a well-floured surface. It will be sticky. Try not to overwork the dough. Pat it into a rectangular shape, folding the dough over on itself several times. Pat or roll the dough into a 1″ thick round. Cut biscuits and place on a buttered baking sheet. Bake 15 minutes or so until golden.

Makes about 24 small biscuits.

I’ve tried it in the past, but not very successfully. I have been teaching an adult ed class combining music and food and thought sourdough biscuits would be perfect for class this week. So, I worked all week on finding a recipe/method that I liked. This is one that I came up with, changing a few ingredients and methods from other I have seen. I don’t have a processor or powerful mixer, so grating the cold butter into the mix worked really well.

I have been making a lot of sourdough bread in the past few months and I have an awesome starter. This will be a great way to use some of it!

Can I freeze these to bake later? How long will they last in the freezer?
