But frozen butter will cause the ingredients of your biscuit to cook at different times. For example, the flour and sour cream will be at one stage of baking before the butter ever melts so the outcome will be inconsistent. An easier way to get your butter to room temperature is to take a large glass, fill it with water and nuke it to just under a boil. Take the glass out and pour off the water. Stand the stick of butter on end and place the hot glass over it. Leave it to set for about 10-15 min and the stick of butter will be perfectly softened without being melted.
zendog57, I take it that you've never made pie crust (where you want your butter as cold as you can get it, without freezing it). Pie crusts turn out flaky and that happens to be how most people like their biscuits, too.
Thank you.. I've tried many biscuits recipes,this one is the best and my family tasted the difference. They're exactly as you said they will be soft,buttery and good. This recipe won us over..I recommend this recipe. I've tried sour cream biscuits before but this one is the best😊
I guess I make biscuits kind of like this… I put at least two big spoonfuls of sour cream, butter and buttermilk.. I put a little extra baking powder and salt … and I try not to fool with the dough too much.. and once I get them cut out I put them in a hot cast iron skillet with melted butter in it.. or a hot pan with melted butter… it always turns out delicious
I came across this video yesterday so I made these biscuits for breakfast this morning and man are they good!! My new favorite biscuit recipe! Not only are they pretty easy to make but that butter taste is incredible. Thank you for sharing this recipe!
Have tried other sour cream biscuits, but they all had a propensity of crumbling when I tried to cut them in half or buttering. Those recipes all called for 2 cups of self rising flour, but only one 8 oz. container of sour cream. Have to admit I added a couple of Tablespoons of fast acting yeast to make angel biscuits. Though it was there more for flavoring than to add a boost to rising of dough during baking...in other words, yeast didn't go through the usual blooming process as in otherwise yeast bread baking. Just there as a flavoring. Why the crumbling? OH, I did add a Tablespoon of powdered Buttermilk to the dry ingredients. Will give this one a try, sounds too great not to try!
I have never eaten sour cream biscuits before, but you can bet I will real soon. They look real good. Hey looka here. I tried to find your egg gravy with no luck. I’d appreciate it if you’d list it. I don’t know if it’s the same stuff, but, i had some when I was a kid. That was some good eating.
Hope you enjoy. If you go to my channel it is in a playlist. Also you can find it on my channel by scrolling through the videos. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching.
I just happened to have made a chicken, carrot, potato and pea sauce (think chicken pot pie filling) earlier today and thought these biscuits would be perfect, smothered in that sauce. After all, I love sour cream. Sadly, I didn't care for them. Nothing wrong with the recipe... I just didn't care for it. I guess I'm hopelessly addicted to buttermilk biscuits (oh well). But I encourage everyone to give them a try. Maybe have them with a cream of potato soup. Don't forget to post what you had with them. There's a lot of good ways to enjoy these things.
Please don’t take offense, but with those hairy knuckles you might want to wear nitrile gloves. Nothing worse than opening up a biscuit and finding little hairs inside. I am planning on making these soon.
bmguercio, Why are you even complaining? You are not going to be eating these biscuits. He could have used his feet to mix the dough and it still would not be a problem for you. The problem is that you can't feel good about yourself unless you are running someone else down (it's called narcissism).
You never said how many tablespoons are in butter, some butter sticks are small some butter sticks are long, please say how many tablespoons you are using? I can't make this recipe.
Just saw your biscuit recipe for the first time...and I was surprised to see someone making the same recipe I use...just make mine a little different... I use one cup of white lily self-raising flour to one stick of soft butter and a half cup of sour cream..mix everything with a spoon and drop them in a mini muffin tin... absolutely delicious...cook at 450 degrees for about 25 minutes..best biscuit you will ever eat ❤
