Ingredients
This recipe keeps things incredibly simple, with just four pantry-friendly items:
2 cups Bisquick (or any baking mix)
1/2 cup sour cream 🥄
1/2 cup 7-Up or Sprite 🥤
1/4 cup melted butter 🧈
Optional: Extra melted butter for brushing after baking
Instructions
👨🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions:
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
Melt the butter and pour it into the bottom of a 9-inch round or square baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, combine Bisquick and sour cream. Use a fork or pastry cutter to mix until crumbly.
Slowly stir in the 7-Up — the dough will be soft and sticky.
Turn dough out onto a floured surface. Gently pat or roll to about 1-inch thickness. Do not overwork it.
Cut biscuits using a biscuit cutter or glass.
Place biscuits in the buttered baking dish. They can touch — this helps them rise high and stay soft.
Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
Optional: Brush with more melted butter right after baking.
Notes
Tips for the Best Biscuits Ever 🧠
Don’t overmix the dough — gentle handling keeps the biscuits tender
Use cold sour cream for extra fluffiness
A well-floured surface makes shaping easier
Letting the biscuits touch in the pan helps them rise higher
Add a pinch of salt if using unsalted butter or low-sodium Bisquick
