Sour Cream Cornmeal Biscuits

Breads, The Farmhouse Table

These biscuits have an extra taste kick with the cornmeal that makes them special–and they’re quick!

How to make Sour Cream Cornmeal Biscuits:

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cornmeal
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 to 1 cup milk

In a large bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, baking powder, sugar, cream of tartar, and salt. Cut in butter and mix. Add sour cream and as much milk as needed to make a stiff biscuit dough. On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to about an inch thickness. Cut out biscuits and place on a greased baking sheet. Bake at 450-degrees for 10-12 minutes, till golden. Makes about 10 biscuits.

Super good with Country Chili.

    Did you know you can use plain yogurt in place of sour cream? I also make homemade yogurt - to not have all the preservatives, sugar, fillers, ect. A world of difference in the taste from storebought..smooth and silky.
