Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
- Grate the butter into the bowl.
- Gently, using a large spoon, combine the grated butter with the flour mix.
- Stir in the sourdough starter.
- Knead lightly in the bowl, or on a lightly floured work surface. Depending on how thick or thin your sourdough starter is, you may need to add more flour or a splash or two of water.
- Shape the dough into loose a ball.
- Roll the dough out 1/2" thick. Cut into 3" circles. Re-roll the cut-offs and repeat.
- Place the biscuits on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover and let rise for 30-40 minutes in a warm place.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 475F.
- Lightly brush the biscuits with melted butter right before baking.
- Once the biscuits have risen, transfer them into the oven, lower the temperature to 425F and bake for 10 minutes.
- Rotate the baking pan and bake for additional 8-10 minutes, or until the tops and the bottoms of the biscuits are golden brown.
- Remove the biscuits from the oven, transfer to a cooling rack and let cool for 3 minutes before serving. Brush tops with butter again, if desired, it will help keep them soft longer.
Notes
- For a whole wheat version, replace one cup of all-purpose flour with one cup of whole wheat flour, or 3/4 cup whole wheat and 1/4 cup rye flour. Increase the amount of sourdough starter to 2 1/2 cups.
