1
Mix flour, salt and baking powder, then rub in cold butter, retaining visible pieces. Stir in sour cream and bring the shaggy dough together.

Roll into a 20 × 25cm rectangle and fold in thirds. Turn a quarter-turn, roll out and repeat the fold.
3
Wrap and refrigerate at least 30 minutes before shaping.

This makes pastry dough rather than a finished bake; use the temperature and timing required by the chosen pastry recipe.
