Last September I posted 12-Hour Sourdough Starter where I showed you how to make sourdough starter the same day, just by using flour and water kefir. This is a super simple recipe that produces perfect sourdough in less than 12 hours due to the probiotic boost from the water kefir.
Although you can treat it as any other starter which takes several days to create, I like to use it as is to make deliciously flaky biscuits in less than 10 minutes.
I used this heart-shaped cast iron pan to bake them. I pre-grease them with butter or coconut oil. My son likes to help me fill them using a 2″ cookie scoop for the perfect amount.
I bake these right in my toaster oven for just 8-10 minutes in a 400 degree oven. They are perfect! Just enough to feed us all for lunch when slathered with butter and peanut butter.
You can also bake them in a muffin pan, or like my friend Miriam did, bake them in a bread pan (fill only part way) and add nuts and cinnamon and raisins to the top. Delicious!
Check out my video below and see for yourself how soft and flaky they are!
For a gluten-free version, use sorghum or spelt. Works just as wonderfully
