Ingredients

  • 1/2 pound bacon cooked until crispy and crumbled (8 ounces uncooked)
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour 260 grams
  • 1 teaspoon salt 5 grams
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder 5 grams
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda 4 grams
  • 1 teaspoon granulated sugar 4 grams
  • 2 large eggs beaten
  • 1/3 cup 2% milk 74 grams
  • 1 cup sour cream 240 grams

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Grease a 9x5" baking pan with shortening, then dust with flour.
  • Fry the bacon and crumble it. Set aside.
  • Use a whisk to combine the flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and sugar in a large mixing bowl. Make a well in the middle of the ingredients.
