If you\u2019ve never tried making biscuits with soda, get ready for a delicious surprise. These 7-Up Biscuits<\/strong> are soft, pillowy, golden, and downright addictive. The secret? The carbonation in 7-Up (or Sprite) gives the dough an airy lift, while sour cream<\/strong> adds moisture and tenderness. Bake them in melted butter<\/strong> and you\u2019ve got biscuits that are crisp on the edges, tender in the middle, and ready to steal the spotlight at any meal.<\/p>\n

Ingredients<\/h2>\n
    \n
  • \n

    4 cups Bisquick<\/strong> (plus more for dusting)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    1 cup sour cream<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    1 cup 7-Up or Sprite<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    \u00bd cup butter<\/strong>, melted<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Instructions<\/h2>\n

    1. Preheat Your Oven<\/h3>\n

    Preheat to 425\u00b0F (220\u00b0C)<\/strong>. Grease a 10-inch cast iron skillet or a 9\u00d79-inch baking dish with a little butter or spray.<\/p>\n

    2. Mix the Dough<\/h3>\n

    In a large bowl, combine the Bisquick and sour cream<\/strong> using a fork or pastry blender. The mixture should look crumbly.<\/p>\n

    Add the 7-Up<\/strong> and stir just until combined. The dough will be very wet and sticky<\/strong>\u2014this is normal!<\/p>\n

    3. Shape the Biscuits<\/h3>\n

    Dust a clean surface with about \u00bc to \u00bd cup of Bisquick.
    Scrape the dough onto the surface and gently coat it in the dry mix so it\u2019s easier to handle.<\/p>\n

    Pat (don\u2019t roll)<\/strong> the dough into a 1-inch thick circle or rectangle.
    Use a 2\u20133 inch biscuit cutter<\/strong> (or rim of a glass) to cut out about 8 biscuits. Tip: Press straight down\u2014don\u2019t twist!<\/em><\/p>\n

    4. Prepare the Pan<\/h3>\n

    Pour the \u00bd cup melted butter<\/strong>into your prepared skillet or baking dish.
    Place biscuits snugly into the pan, allowing just a little space between each.<\/p>\n

    5. Bake<\/h3>\n

    Bake for 12\u201314 minutes<\/strong>, or until biscuits are puffed and golden brown on top.<\/p>\n

    Optional: Turn on the broiler for the last minute if you want a deeper golden crust\u2014but watch carefully!<\/p>\n

    6. Rest & Serve<\/h3>\n

    Let the biscuits sit in the warm butter for 5 minutes<\/strong> before serving. They\u2019ll absorb even more flavor while staying crisp on the bottom.<\/p>\n

    Serve warm with butter, jam, honey\u2014or even smothered in sausage gravy for a hearty breakfast!<\/p>\n

    Pro Tips<\/h2>\n
      \n
    • \n

      Don\u2019t overmix!<\/strong> Gentle handling = fluffier biscuits.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    • \n

      Use cold sour cream<\/strong> to keep the dough nice and chilled.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    • \n

      Make them mini:<\/strong> Use a smaller cutter for appetizer-sized biscuits.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
