Homemade Biscuit Recipe with Sour Cream

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Then, spray an 8x8 baking pan with non-stick cooking spray.

Step 2

Crack the egg in a large bowl and beat with a fork. Next, add the sour cream and sugar. Add in the remaining dry ingredients and stir just until mixed. Dough will be sticky.

Step 3

Grate the cold butter into the mixing bowl, stir just enough to mix.

Step 4

Then, add in the remaining dry ingredients and stir just until mixed. Dough will be sticky.

Step 5

Lightly flour a counter top and use a rubber scraper to scrape the dough out from the bowl. Sprinkle some additional flour on top and lightly knead a few times. Shape it into a mound and pat dough out to 1" thickness. I just use my hands!

Step 6

Spray biscuit cutter with non-stick spray. If you don't have cutters, you can use the open end of a cup, canning jar rings or simply cut them with a knife and form balls. Cut dough to form 9 biscuits. If you have leftover dough, divide it up, pat each piece flat and place it on the underside of each of the 9 biscuits.

Step 7

Place the biscuits in the greased pan. Pat the tops down slightly so that they're smoother on top.

Step 8

Bake 15 minutes at 400 degrees.
