Buttermilk Biscuts....

Made from the Sourdough Starter
I got from Trish @ Lovin' The Country Life

I dont roll my biscuits, I just pinch some off and shape it out

They may not be the prettiest biscuits in the world but they sure do taste good!

Cute lil Bantam eggs to go with the Buttermilk Biscuits


Sourdough Buttermilk Biscuits
3 cups flour
1 and 1/2 Tbsp salt
3 Tbsp baking powder
1/4 cup sugar
1 stick butter
1 cup starter
1 cup buttermilk

Mix all dry ingredients together. Cut butter into dry ingredients. Add starter and buttermilk and mix until soft dough forms. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Use only enough flour to keep dough from sticking to your hands. Do not knead the flour in the dough. The less flour you use to handle the dough the better. Excess flour will make your biscuits heavy and tough. I poured my dough out onto a piece of lightly floured wax paper, pinch some off and shape into biscuits. Put on a baking sheet and bake at 400 for 15-20 mins. ( I baked mine for 15 mins.)

I got 24 biscuits out of my dough.
