There’s something inherently comforting about pulling apart a hot, buttery biscuit – the steam, the soft layers, the golden crust. Biscuits are a staple in American cuisine, with every region adding its own flair. However, there’s one unique variant that has stood the test of time with its surprising secret ingredient: 7 Up biscuits.
The combination of biscuit mix, sour cream, melted butter, and a splash of 7 Up soda may sound unusual, but it’s the secret to creating tender, fluffy biscuits with a hint of sweetness. The carbonation in the soda helps the dough rise, yielding irresistibly light biscuits, while the tangy sour cream provides a moist and creamy texture.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups Bisquick
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup 7 Up soda
- 1/4 cup melted butter
Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C).
- In a bowl, cut sour cream into your Bisquick mix, then add 7 Up. The dough will be very soft, don’t worry.
- Sprinkle additional Bisquick mix on a board or table and pat your dough out. Cut the dough into biscuit size rounds.
- Melt butter in a 9-inch square baking pan. Place the cut biscuits in the pan on top of the melted butter.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
