These are hands down the flakiest, most tender biscuits you'll ever make! After testing dozens of recipes, I discovered that using BOTH buttermilk and sour cream creates the most incredible texture and flavor. The combination is pure magic!
WHAT MAKES THESE SPECIAL:
The secret is using buttermilk AND sour cream together - this dual dairy approach creates biscuits that are impossibly flaky on the outside and incredibly tender on the inside. Plus, we're using a food processor to keep that butter cold and create perfect layers every time!
INGREDIENTS (Makes 8-10 biscuits):
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp baking soda
1 tbsp baking powder
1 1/2 tsp salt
113g (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cubed
1/2 cup buttermilk (cold)
1/2 cup sour cream (cold)
PRO TIPS:
✓ Don't have buttermilk? Mix 1/2 cup milk with 1/2 tsp vinegar, warm it up slightly, and let it sit for 5 minutes - perfect substitute!
✓ Keep your butter, buttermilk, and sour cream COLD - this is crucial for flaky layers
✓ Don't twist your biscuit cutter - press straight down for maximum rise
✓ Don't overmix the dough - shaggy is perfect!
SERVING SUGGESTIONS:
These biscuits are amazing with butter and honey, jam, gravy, or just eaten warm straight from the oven. They're perfect for breakfast, as a dinner side, or anytime you need comfort food!
