7 Up Biscuit Recipe Ingredients
When you use Bisquick, it just makes everything else so easy. For this 7 Up Biscuit recipe, you will only need 3 other things! And you probably already have them in your kitchen! Just combine all the ingredients, cut into a round biscuit and let your oven do the rest of the work. Here is what you’ll need to get started.
- BISQUICK – Bisquick Baking Mix! The ultimate shortcut! If you want to make these gluten free, you can use Gluten Free Bisquick.
- SOUR CREAM – To lighten up this recipe a bit, you can use Low Fat Sour Cream if you’d like.
- BUTTER – This is our shortening. Salted or unsalted. Your choice.
- 7 UP – Or other lemon-lime soda. You can use Diet 7-Up if you’d like.

- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and melt butter in a small dish.
- Pour 2 Cups of Bisquick in a medium sized bowl and add the sour cream.
- Add the 7-Up and stir to combine. Stir until just incorporated. Don’t over mix!
- Pour 1/4 cup of Bisquick on the counter or cutting board. Dump the batter on top of it. Pour the last 1/4 cup of Bisquick on top of the Bisquick mixture. Gently work it into the mixture. Gently flatten it out to be about 1 inch thick. Cut the mixture into biscuit sized circles using a cooking cutter, glass rim, etc.
- Pour 1/4 cup of melted butter into the bottom of a 9X9 pan. Add the biscuits to the pan. Bake at 425 for 12-14 minutes, or until Biscuits are golden brown on top.
I think that one of my favorite parts of this recipe is that you place biscuits in the baking dish on top of melted butter. So, when they finish baking, the whole bottom of the bisquick has a crispy, buttery taste that I can’t even fully describe. They are amazing!
These are perfect to make for dinner. And then you’ll also have some left over for breakfast. You can either use them as a grab and go breakfast or make an egg, cheese and sausage biscuit out of them. I suggest the latter!
What Is A Good Bisquick Substitute
According to shelfcooking.com, you can substitute Bisquick with Pancake Mix (although you may get sweeter results), Jiffy Baking Mix or Krusteaz Baking Mix. Or you could make your own, homemade Bisquick with some flour, baking powder, salt and vegetable oil. Head to their website for the recipe!
Notes, Tips and FAQs
- Be Gentle!- Be careful when you stir all the ingredients together. Knead them just enough so that all the bisquick is in contact with the Sour Cream and the 7 Up. That is how you’ll get that unbelievable texture.
- Too Sticky?- Is the soft dough too sticky and hard to work with? Well, it is supposed to be very soft and sticky. Not like regular dough you may be expecting. So don’t panic. But don’t be afraid to use a little extra bisquick on your hands or on the counter to help out. This way you can easily pat dough and work with it as needed. You can also use all purpose flour.
- Are 7-Up Biscuits Too Sweet?- Does the sugar in the 7-up make these biscuits too sweet? I was wondering this as well. The answer is NO. I wouldn’t call this a “sweet” bread at all.
- Can I Make These Healthier?- You can try subbing out Low-Fat Sour Cream or even Greek Yogurt for the regular Sour Cream. I haven’t tried these with a diet soda, so I’m not sure what the result would be.
- Do I Have To Use 7 Up?- Any Lemon-Lime Soda will work, including Sprite. I’ve also heard that these are good when they are made with Ginger Ale. So go for it if that sounds good!
- How To Know When They Are Done- Your 7 Up Biscuits are done when they are golden brown on top.
- Serve Warm- I discovered that these biscuits are absolutely better when served warm, especially right out of the oven. But you can microwave the too.
- How Long Will These Biscuits Last?- About 1-2 days at room temperature in an airtight container, about 1 week in the fridge.
