Why Do You Use Soda in Homemade Biscuits?
I know, you’re probably thinking the same thing I was: soda in a biscuit? How does that work?
Well, the secret ingredient is that bubbly water! The carbonation in 7-Up mimics the acid in buttermilk, which reacts with the leavening agent in Bisquick to create light, fluffy biscuits!
It doesn’t have to be 7-UP! Any lemon-lime soda adds a hint of sweetness, but you could also use ginger ale or even just club soda!
Ingredients for 7Up Biscuits
As promised, you only need four ingredients to make this easy biscuit recipe.
- Unsalted butter
- Bisquick baking mix
- Plain Greek yogurt (you can also use sour cream)
- 7-Up Soda (or similar lemon-lime soda)

How to make 7 Up Biscuits
- Melt butter in the oven. Slice the stick of butter and place it into a 9×9 inch square pan or cast iron skillet. Put the pan in the oven and turn it on to 450 degrees F. Be sure to watch the butter as it melts to prevent it from browning. Remove the pan from the oven when the butter is completely melted.
- Mix the batter. In a large bowl, mix together the Bisquick, Greek yogurt, and 7-Up. Stir with a wooden spoon until well combined.
- Shape the biscuits. Coat your hands with a small amount of flour or additional biscuit mix, then divide the biscuit dough into 9 equal pieces with a knife or pastry cutter. Place biscuits into the prepared baking dish, spacing them evenly on top of the melted butter. You can also use a circle cookie cutter for another easy way to shape them. The dough will expand as it bakes so don’t worry if you don’t fill the entire space.
- Bake. Bake for 12-15 minutes in the preheated oven or until the top is lightly golden brown. Remove the baking pan from the oven and cool slightly. These buttery biscuits are best served warm!
LOOK at that buttery crust! There’s no need to serve them with additional butter, but if you’re like me, you’ll want to add it anyway. I LOVED how easy they were to make. Now we can have biscuits for breakfast or dinner and they won’t need hours to rise.
Serving Suggestions
- Top biscuits with butter and your favorite jam.
- Biscuits and Gravy is a classic Southern breakfast. Serve these with a delicious sausage gravy for a hearty meal.
- Serve them with your favorite soup or pasta dish. They are great for sopping up the extra sauce!
How to Store Leftover 7-UP Biscuits
Store these biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. They will last up to a week if stored in the fridge.
Can you freeze 7Up Biscuits?
Yes, you can freeze these! Store them in a zippered freezer bag in a single layer, removing as much air as possible. Freeze for up to 1 month.
To reheat, heat oven to 350 degrees. Place frozen biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 12-15 minutes.

Easy 7-Up Biscuits
Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter sliced
- 2 ½ cups Bisquick
- ½ cup plain Greek yogurt
- ½ cup 7-Up soda brought to room temperature
Instructions
- Place the sliced butter into a 9 X 9-inch baking pan.
- Put the pan in the oven and turn it on to 450 degrees F. Be sure to check the butter as it melts to prevent it from browning. Remove pan from oven after butter has melted.
- In a large bowl, mix together the Bisquick, Greek yogurt, and 7-Up with a wooden spoon until well combined.
- Using a small amount of flour for your hands, divide the dough into 9 equal amounts and place into the baking dish. The dough will expand as it bakes, so don’t fret if all spaces in the pan are not completely filled in.
- Bake for 12- 15 minutes, or until top is lightly golden.
Notes
- Remember to be checking that butter melting in the baking dish so that it doesn’t brown. Browned butter is good, but not for this recipe – we want it yellow. If it’s browned before the dough is added, there’s a likely chance the butter will burn and good biscuits with burnt butter will not be well received at dinner.
- You can substitute sour cream for the Greek yogurt.
