How to make homemade biscuits without baking powder?

To make homemade biscuits without baking powder, you can try the following methods:

• Use self-rising flour: Self-rising flour already contains baking powder, so you don't need to add any extra. Simply mix the self-rising flour with other ingredients and bake as directed.
• Substitute with buttermilk: Buttermilk has natural acidity that can activate baking soda as a leavening agent. Replace the baking powder with ¼ teaspoon of baking soda and ½ cup of buttermilk for every teaspoon of baking powder.
• Use yogurt or sour cream: Yogurt or sour cream can provide acidity and help the biscuits rise. Replace baking powder with ¼ teaspoon of baking soda and ½ cup of yogurt or sour cream for every teaspoon of baking powder.
• Cream of tartar and baking soda: Cream of tartar is an acid that can activate baking soda. Replace baking powder with ¼ teaspoon of baking soda and ½ teaspoon of cream of tartar for every teaspoon of baking powder.

What goes good with homemade biscuits?

When it comes to serving homemade biscuits, there are plenty of delicious options to consider. They can be enjoyed with some butter, jam, sausage gravy or alongside breakfast favorites like scrambled eggs and bacon.

Biscuits can also be enjoyed as a side to chicken, soups, stews, barbecue, or with a hearty salad. I love to bake my traditional Homemade Biscuits as a side dish to soup.

You can also serve them for dessert with strawberries and homemade whipped cream...yum!
