Ingredients

  • 1 cup white whole wheat flour

  • 2 teaspoons baking powder

  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda

  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt

  • cup cold salted butter, cut into small pieces

  • 1 cup sourdough starter

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together into a large bowl. Cut in butter until pea-sized. Add sourdough starter and stir just until dough holds together.

  3. Transfer to a floured board and knead 5 to 10 times. Pat to a 3/4-inch thickness and cut into 10 biscuits. Place on the prepared baking sheet.

  4. Bake until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes.

Cook's Notes:

Any type of flour can be substituted--I use freshly ground hard white wheat flour. When I made them with 1/2 white flour, they reminded me of Kentucky Fried Chicken's(TM) biscuits.

Use a sourdough starter that's been fed 1 part flour to 1 part water. I like to let the dough rest when mixed up to allow the sourdough starter to work through the flour, making it easier to digest.
