These super easy 7-Up Biscuits are made in about ten minutes with four ingredients.  They are so fluffy and buttery that they may very well become your go-to biscuit. I am sure that you have woken up thinking wouldn’t it be absolutely divine to have homemade biscuits for breakfast but who has all that time for cutting the butter in flour and all that jazz? These are the solution to your time for biscuits dilemma. Plan a batch for your family this week, and you will see exactly what I mean.

How do you make 7up Biscuits?

First, turn on that oven and add a stick of butter to the baking pan.  Pop it in the oven and let the butter melt.  Let it sit and cool for just a few minutes while you gather the ingredients and whip up those biscuits.

In a large bowl, add the Bisquick, 7up, and sour cream.  Now, stir to combine.  The dough will be very sticky.  Next, sprinkle about 1/4 cup of Bisquick on your work area and coat your hands with Bisquick.  Spoon the dough out and add another 1/4 cup of additional biscuit mix to the top of the dough. This is a very soft dough. Work the dough just a bit with the dried Bisquick by patting and folding, and repeating until it is no longer sticky.  Now pat it out to about 1 inch thick.

Next, dip the edge of the round biscuit cutter or cookie cutter in Bisquick to help keep it from sticking to the dough.  Then cut your biscuits. Place cut biscuits on top of the melted butter, reworking any leftover dough and patting it out again, and re-cutting. Finally, bake for about twelve minutes in a preheated oven. I love these biscuits straight out of the oven with butter and jam.

What is Bisquick?

Bisquick is a premixed baking mix that consists of flour, shortening, baking soda, salt, and sugar.  It is usually in the same aisle as the dried pancake mix at your local grocery store.  I have used store-brand baking mixes as well, with equally good results.

How to make homemade Bisquick

If you don’t have access to Bisquick, then you can make your own. Simply whisk together 4 cups of all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Using a pastry cutter or a fork, cut in 2/3 cup vegetable shortening until pea-sized crumbs form. Then proceed with the rest of the recipe as written.

Helpful tips for making 7up Biscuits

• Save yourself a bowl and melt the butter in the baking dish you intend to use while you are preheating the oven.  Keep an eye on the butter, as you do not want it to burn.
• Allow the butter to cool slightly before proceeding with the rest of the biscuit recipe.
• This is a soft, sticky dough. When working it and patting it out, add only enough Bisquick to make it work as you want to keep it a relatively soft dough.  That is part of what makes it so delicious.
• I like my biscuits not too thick and not too thin.  Obviously, if you cut them thicker, you are going to get fewer biscuits, and they will need a couple more minutes of baking time.
• For square biscuits, use a knife and cut the dough into 12 biscuits.
• You can substitute any lemon-lime soda like Sprite or ginger ale for the 7Up.
• I have used store-brand baking mixes for this recipe with good success.
• Store the baked biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the fridge for up to a week.

• 1 cup 7up
• 1 cup sour cream

Instructions

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.  Add butter to a 9×13 inch baking dish and place in the oven for 5-7 minutes to melt butter. Keep an eye on the butter, as you do not want it to burn.  Remove from oven.
• In a large bowl, mix together 4 cups Bisquick, 7up, and sour cream.  The dough will be quite sticky. Sprinkle 1/4 cup Bisquick over a small work area. Spoon dough over top.  Sprinkle 1/4 cup Bisquick over the dough.  Dust hands with Bisquick.
• Work the dough by patting and folding. Repeat until the dough is workable. Pat dough out to about 1 inch thick. Dip biscuit cutter in Bisquick. Cut the biscuits and place them in the baking dish with the melted butter.  Rework the dough just enough to pat it out to cut any remaining biscuits.
• Bake for 12-14 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
