Ingredients

  • 1 cup biscuit baking mix
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the biscuit baking mix, sour cream, and melted butter.

  3. Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.

Tips & Substitutions

For a lighter texture, avoid overmixing the dough. If you don't have biscuit baking mix, you can create your own by combining flour, baking powder, and salt. Consider adding herbs or cheese to the mixture for extra flavor, which pairs beautifully with Grandma Friedrich'S Bread Pudding for a delightful brunch.
