These zesty sourdough bites combine the tangy flavor of sourdough with a sweet buttery texture, making them perfect for any snack time or dessert craving.
Ingredients
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup sourdough starter
1 large egg
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Method
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare your baking trays by greasing them lightly or lining them with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the granulated sugar and softened butter until the mixture is light and fluffy. Add the sourdough starter and an egg, mixing until fully incorporated.
Gradually fold in the flour, baking powder, vanilla extract, salt, and baking soda, stirring until the dough is smooth and cohesive.
Using a teaspoon, scoop out small portions of the dough and place them on the prepared trays, ensuring there's enough space between each scoop for the cookies to spread.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are beautifully golden brown.
