Prep Time:15 minutes
Cook Time:12 minutes

Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Mixing spoon
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Cheese grater
  • Cookie sheet
  • Biscuit cutter or glass jar

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups All-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp Baking Powder
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 cup Butter
  • 2 tbsp Honey
  • 2 cups Sourdough Starter
  • 1/2 cup Buttermilk

Instructions

  • The night before you want to make these, feed your sourdough starter so it's nice and bubbly in the morning. You will need 2 cups of starter so feed accordingly so you have some leftover.
  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a baking mat.
  • Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl and mix well.
  • Using a cheese grater, grate the stick of butter into the flour mixture and mix well until crumbly.
  • Add the honey, sourdough starter, and buttermilk to the bowl. Mix well until the dough comes together.
  • Pour dough out onto a floured work surface. Using your hand or a rolling pin, flatten the dough to about 1 inch in thickness.
  • Use a biscuit cutter or glass jar to cut out the biscuits. Place on the cookie sheet 1 inch apart.
  • Bake for about 12 minutes, or until lightly browned.

Notes

If you don't have buttermilk, pour 1/2 tbsp of lemon juice or vinegar into a 1/2 cup measuring cup. Fill the rest of the way with milk and allow to sit for about 10 minutes.
Serve biscuits warm with butter, honey, jam, or your favorite topping.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Servings: 20 biscuits
