7-Up Biscuits Recipe

Bisquick mix: A pre-mixed baking mix that includes flour, shortening, and leavening agents, making it a convenient base for biscuits.

Sour cream: Adds moisture and a slight tang to the biscuits, making them tender and flavorful.

7-Up: A lemon-lime soda that gives the biscuits a unique, light texture and subtle sweetness.

Butter: Melted and poured into the baking pan to create a rich, golden crust on the biscuits.

When combining the bisquick mix, sour cream, and 7-up, be careful not to overmix the dough. Overmixing can result in tough biscuits. Mix until the ingredients are just combined to ensure a light and fluffy texture.

• bisquick mix - Substitute with all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt: Mix 2 cups of all-purpose flour with 1 tablespoon of baking powder and ½ teaspoon of salt to create a homemade version of Bisquick mix.

• sour cream - Substitute with Greek yogurt: Greek yogurt provides a similar tangy flavor and creamy texture, making it a great alternative to sour cream.

• 7-up - Substitute with club soda: Club soda can mimic the carbonation and slight acidity of 7-Up without adding extra sweetness.

• melted butter - Substitute with melted margarine: Margarine can be used in place of butter to provide a similar fat content and moisture level.

• Allow the biscuits to cool completely before storing. This prevents condensation from forming, which can make them soggy.
• Store biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. If you want to keep them longer, refrigerate them for up to a week.
• For freezing, wrap each biscuit individually in plastic wrap or aluminum foil. This helps to maintain their texture and flavor.
• Place the wrapped biscuits in a resealable freezer bag or an airtight container. Label with the date to keep track of freshness.
• When ready to enjoy, thaw biscuits at room temperature or in the refrigerator overnight.
• To reheat, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the biscuits on a baking sheet and cover with aluminum foil to prevent drying out. Heat for about 10-15 minutes or until warmed through.
• Alternatively, you can reheat biscuits in the microwave. Place a damp paper towel over the biscuits and heat on medium power for 20-30 seconds. Check and add more time if needed.
• For a crispier texture, you can also reheat biscuits in a toaster oven. Set to a low temperature and heat for a few minutes until warm and slightly crispy.

• Oven Method:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  3. Cover the biscuits lightly with aluminum foil to prevent them from drying out.
  4. Heat for about 10-15 minutes or until they are warmed through.

• Microwave Method:

  1. Place the biscuits on a microwave-safe plate.
  2. Cover them with a damp paper towel to keep them moist.
  3. Microwave on medium power for 20-30 seconds. Check and add more time if needed, in 10-second increments.

• Toaster Oven Method:

  1. Preheat your toaster oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Place the biscuits on the toaster oven tray.
  3. Heat for about 8-10 minutes or until they are warmed through.

• Skillet Method:

  1. Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat.
  2. Place the biscuits in the skillet.
  3. Cover with a lid and heat for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are warmed through.

• Air Fryer Method:

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 320°F (160°C).
  2. Place the biscuits in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
  3. Heat for about 3-5 minutes, checking halfway through to ensure they don't overcook.

• Oven: Preheat to 450°F (230°C) for baking the biscuits.

• Mixing bowl: Combine the Bisquick mix, sour cream, and 7-Up.

• Flat surface: Sprinkle with Bisquick mix to pat out the dough.

• Biscuit cutter: Cut the dough into biscuit shapes.

• Baking pan: Pour melted butter and place the biscuits in it.

• Measuring cups: Measure out the Bisquick mix, sour cream, and 7-Up.

• Spatula: Mix the ingredients until just combined.

• Microwave or stovetop: Melt the butter before pouring it into the baking pan.

Prepare ingredients in advance: Measure out the bisquick mix, sour cream, and 7-up beforehand to streamline the process.

Use a food processor: Quickly combine the bisquick mix and sour cream in a food processor for a smoother dough.

Preheat the oven early: Start preheating your oven while you gather your ingredients to save time.

Use a biscuit cutter: A biscuit cutter ensures uniform shapes, making the process faster and the biscuits bake evenly.

Melt butter in the oven: Place the butter in the baking pan and let it melt in the preheating oven to save a step.
