If you love soft and fluffy biscuits, this Paula Deen Sour Cream Biscuits Recipe is perfect for you. These biscuits are rich, buttery and very easy to make.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ cup cold butter cubed
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons milk if needed
Instructions
Preheat Oven
- Preheat oven to 220°C (425°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Mix Dry Ingredients
- In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda. Mix well to distribute evenly.
Cut in Butter
- Add cold butter cubes. Use a pastry cutter or fork to mix until crumbs form. Butter pieces should remain small.
Add Sour Cream
- Stir in sour cream gently. Mix until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix to keep biscuits tender.
Adjust Dough
- If dough feels dry, add a little milk. Mix lightly until dough comes together.
Shape the Dough
- Turn dough onto a floured surface. Pat gently to about 1-inch thickness without pressing too hard.
Cut Biscuits
- Use a cutter or glass to cut rounds. Place them on the baking tray close together.
Bake Biscuits
- Bake for 12–15 minutes until tops are golden brown and biscuits are cooked through.
Serve Warm
- Remove from oven and serve warm. Enjoy soft, fluffy biscuits with butter or jam.
Notes
- Use very cold butter for flaky texture
- Do not overwork the dough
- Add shredded cheese for a savory twist
- Brush tops with melted butter after baking
- Use buttermilk instead of milk for richer taste
- Add herbs like chives for flavor
- Bake biscuits close together for softer sides
