For best results, use a high-quality all-purpose flour. Ensure your sourdough starter is active for optimal rise and flavor. Don't over-knead the dough; this will result in tough biscuits. For a richer flavor, substitute honey for sugar. Serve with butter, jam, or alongside your favorite savory dishes.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPrepare the Buttermilk: In a small bowl, whisk together the milk and apple cider vinegar. Let it stand for 5-10 minutes to slightly thicken and curdle. (Prep time: 5 minutes)
02
StepCombine First Dough: In a large, non-reactive bowl, combine 1 cup of flour, the sourdough starter, and the prepared buttermilk. Stir until just combined. Cover the bowl and let the dough rest in a warm place for 8 hours to overnight. (Prep time: 5 minutes)
03
StepMix Second Dough: Add 1 cup of flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda to the rested dough. Gently knead until just combined. (Prep time: 5 minutes)
04
StepShape the Biscuits: Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface using the remaining 1/2 cup of flour. Gently roll or pat the dough to a thickness of about 1/2 inch. Dip a biscuit cutter (or a knife) into the melted butter and cut out biscuits. Reserve any remaining melted butter. (Prep time: 15 minutes)
05
StepRest the Biscuits: Place the cut biscuits close together in a greased 9x13-inch baking pan. Cover and let rest for 30 minutes. (Rest time: 30 minutes)
06
StepPreheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). (Prep time: 10 minutes)
07
StepBake: Melt any remaining butter and brush the tops of the biscuits. Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, approximately 25-30 minutes. (Cook time: 30 minutes)
08
StepServe: Serve warm and enjoy!

Jul 1, 2025My sourdough starter wasn't very active, but the biscuits still turned out great. They were just a little less tangy.

Jul 1, 2025I've tried other sourdough biscuit recipes, but this one is by far the best. The buttermilk makes them so tender.

Jul 1, 2025I messed up and didn't let the dough rest overnight. They were still good, just not quite as light.
