Keyphrase: Southern-Style 7 Up Biscuits
These Southern-Style 7 Up Biscuits are unbelievably light, fluffy, and buttery—thanks to the magic of lemon-lime soda! Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or as a side for any meal.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup 7 Up (or other lemon-lime soda)
- 2 tablespoons melted butter (for brushing)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Grease a 9-inch square baking pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Cut in cold butter using a pastry cutter or fork until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in sour cream and 7 Up until just combined (dough will be soft and sticky).
- Turn dough onto a floured surface and gently pat to 1-inch thickness. Cut into 9 squares or use a biscuit cutter.
- Place biscuits in prepared pan. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until golden brown.
- Brush hot biscuits with melted butter. Serve warm.
Tips & FAQ
- Can I use diet soda? Yes, but regular 7 Up gives the best flavor and rise.
- Make ahead: Biscuits are best fresh, but can be reheated in the oven.
