Behold da' biscuit.....
That quintessential southern bread item that every cook, worth her salt, must have in her repertoire.
If you live in any southern region of the U.S., it goes without saying that you must be able to produce a fine biscuit. Not just a suitable biscuit for company, but a creation worthy of praise from your own family members. And, it must not come from a can. That is comparable to a sin, harsh but true.
I have tried many standard biscuit recipes, with some great results. But, this little gem ranks at the top of the list. How could you possibly go wrong with soda, butter and sour cream.
People please......just make these....okay?
7-Up Biscuits
2 cups Bisquick, or comparable baking mix
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup 7-Up
1/4 melted butter
Preheat your oven to 450 degrees. Mix all ingredients, except melted butter, in a bowl. It will form a very soft dough. Turn out onto a board sprinkled with Bisquick. Pat into 1/2 inch thickness and cut with your most favorite biscuit butter. Pour melted butter into a pan. *I used a 9-inch round cake pan with good results.* Place cut biscuits on top of melted butter. Bake for 12-15 minutes. Eat with copious amounts of butter, jam, honey, etc ....
You can thank me later.....

Oh my gosh....I must try these..they look heavenly.
These are quite delish..especially with honey!
where were you Farmchick when I needed a biscuit recipe to make heavenly biscuits for my Don? What an easy recipe...sad that I no longer eat much starch! I think I'll pass your recipe on to my DIL...thanks for sharing!
my mouth is watering. and, no, i will not make these!
I just wrote it down and will use it as we plan to do a lot of baking this fall and winter. My hubby is from New Orleans, so you know he will appreciate a good biscuit! Thank you so much for sharing.
Wow that sounds yummy!
My cholesterol will be in a state of shock after eating those tasty looking biscuits.
Dang, those look good!
Oh my goodness. I have never seen this recipe before! I guess I live North enough (North central Missouri) that I don't feel the biscuit pressure. My hubbie actually likes canned biscuits, as long as they are flakey ones. He really doesn't know what he is missing, since the canned are the only kind he will eat. Crazy man!
They look delicious! I want one NOW!
Mmmmmmm. You can cook. I specialize in eating.
I have yet to perfect a biscuit recipe...I love little secret ingredients, like the 7-up, can't wait to give these a try and see what my southern hubby says. Thanks, xo.
OMG! These will be on my table before the sun goes down tomorrow. How about a little sausage gravy on these little gems!
ok, this had me at hello. i bet the effervescence of the 7-Up makes the batter really light!
Just jotted this recipe down..I fix breakfast every morning for all my kids and grandkids before they head out for school....I know they will love them...
Thanks..

Ooooh Thank you. Biscuits are my weakness and am always up for a recipe that looks THAT GOOD!
Oh boy, thanks for that recipe! My mom made buttermilk biscuits from scratch without EVER measuring anything.. and they were from heaven! I've been using frozen biscuits that are almost like the real thing. I copied this down and will give it a try, fun!
Thanks for visiting my blog and enjoying the beach photos!! ((hugs)), Teresa :-)
Will definitely try them, they look Yummy:)
And what a cute name too.
Have a fabulous week ahead:)

I have to try this recipe. Sounds mouth-watering - nuthin' better than homemade biscuits, real butter and homemade jelly!
I'm not sure what bisquick is but...we have a similar recipe over here - lemonade scones! A cup lemonade, a cup cream, 2 cups self raising flour and that's it! So simple but sooooo good smothered in whipped cream and raspberry jam :)
Thanks ... I think it looks good !
oh lawdy mercy! I've never heard of biscuits made with 7-Up but I am all about trying these dudes! Thanks for sharing
Brings back memories of breakfast at my grandmothers either on the dairy farm in Marysville, TN or Gatlinburg, TN. In Gatlinburg they had their own bee hives and we had fresh honey with the biscuits and her home made perserves.
I am absolutely sure to love these!
Ok...Ok...I've got my own tried and true Southern Gal biscuit recipe but you've convinced me to try your 7~uppers!!!! Heeehehe!
God bless ya sweetie and have an extraordinary day!!! :o)
Elenka found it on Pinterest. Gonna try it soon. Can't wait. mmmmmmmmmmmm
Oh my goodness.....I will make these this weekend! (my husband thanks you in advance/ha)
Well! Aren't you the timely one! My 11 year old dear son just started going into work with my dear husband at 5:15am! (We have an insulation business.) He helps around the shop, loads trucks, whatever needs to be done. They come back home at about 8:00am and I have a hot breakfast waiting for them. I can't wait to make these for them. They will LOVE it! Thank you!
I have sausage in the fridge and was thinking about making biscuits and gravy for my hubby as a treat for the next rainy breakfast. I will make these and let you know how they turn out! Thanks! Off to the corn fields now!
these look awesome! :)
these look awesome! :)
Oh my, your biscuits look so light and fluffy and GOOD!
I'm a fellow Southern gal, so I am REALLY going to try to make these!! My mother would make the best home-made biscuits, different varieties, but she passed away before I could get her recipe. I do remember her using sour cream, so I am crossing my fingers on your recipe!!!!!! Regardless, I'm sure they will be delicious.
