Sourdough Biscuits

I have to make these and immediately hide them.  The kids pop them like candy if they're on the counter.

2 c flour

2 t sugar

2 t baking powder

1 t kosher salt

3/4 t baking soda

1/2 c butter, frozen

1 c active sourdough starter

1/2 cup buttermilk (or 1/2 c milk with a splash of lemon juice)

Preheat to 450.  Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, combine dry ingredients.  Grate butter into flour mixture.

Whisk together sourdough and buttermilk.  Add the flour mixture and stir until soft dough forms.

Working on a lightly floured surface, knead the dough 2-3 times until it comes together.  Using a rolling pin, roll the dough into a 1 1/2-inch-thick rectangle.  Cut out 8-10 rounds using a 2-inch biscuit or cookie cutter.

Place biscuits onto the prepared sheet.  Bake for 14-18 minutes, or until golden brown.  Watch closely.  If you didn't roll out the dough thick enough it's more likely to burn.

I usually double this recipe successfully.
