So, I thought I’d share one of my favorite recipes with you today that you are gonna love!

YOU MAY BE THINKING ‘WAIT-WAIT-WAIT…SPRITE?!’
You read that right! Here’s why: The Sprite acts as a leavening agent, that makes your biscuit dough rise. The carbonation bubbles from the Sprite react with the baking soda in the Bisquick, and poof! You’ve got these fluffy, little bites of heaven! (Check out my 7UP Biscuits too!)

Did you just read that I add SPRITE to my biscuits?! YEP. Bisquick, sour cream, and Sprite are all you need to make these little bites of heaven!
‘SOUR CREAM YOU SAY?’
Yup! It has a secret superpower: Sour Cream adds moisture, creaminess and controls browning when your dough is baking in the oven. It’s a great ingredient to use in biscuits or cakes. I prefer it! In fact, it’s one of my 10 Tricks To Make A Box Cake Mix Taste Homemade !

Bisquick Biscuits Ingredients

How to Make 3-Ingredient Biscuits
1. Preheat the oven
Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
2. Add the ingredients
In a medium-sized bowl, stir together Bisquick, Sprite, and sour cream until just combined.
3. Knead the dough
Sprinkle the countertop with a little Bisquick. Add the dough to the counter and knead a little using your hands to the dough and pat the dough out to about 1/2 an inch thick.
Add additional Bisquick as needed to form a very soft dough that is just holding together.
4. Add to a skillet
Pour the melted butter into a cast iron skillet or an 8×8 baking dish.
5. Cut the biscuits
Cut the biscuits out with a biscuit cutter or the top of a small jar and place them in the pan of butter.
6. Bake
Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
TIPS
If your dough seems too sticky as you’re kneading, keep sprinkling with flour until it works out to the right consistency!
And that’s it. They really are that simple!
Variations

FAQS
How do you know when the biscuits are done baking?
you’re going to be looking for them to turn a nice golden color. The top of the biscuits will brown and that means it’s time to pull them and put them on the cooling rack.
What side dishes go well with easy biscuits?
You can make sausage gravy as a quick side, or some air fryer bacon as well. Add a bit of melted butter to the biscuit tops and enjoy!
You can make these light and fluffy Bisquick biscuits for any time of the day – breakfast, lunch, dinner – they’re so easy to make you can just whip up a batch in record time!

Slow Cooker Italian Chicken Sandwich
I love this easy, very yummy recipe. Thank you for sharing!!
Thank you, Cara! We’re so glad you enjoyed it.
My dough is to sticky, it’s sticking to my hands as I’m trying to knead it
Try adding more flour!
I have made these bisquits several times and everyone loves them. When we have out of town company, I make the sprite bisquits with sausage gravy and scrambled eggs.
The biscuits were very sticky but, I added more Bisquick and they turned out great!
I have used this recipe for making garlic cheddar biscuits. I add 1 tsp (more or less) of garlic powder to the Bisquick. Stir with a fork to combine. Add 1 cup (more or less) mild cheddar or colby cheese shredded from the block Proceed per recipe. May need a splash or two of sour cream to make it workable
I only have diet Mt. Dew! Will that work? Anybody??
You can try it! I have not.
Yes, I make them with zero sugar sprite! They are great!
I’m going to try these. Sounds interesting. I d like to share another quick easy biscuit recipe which is also from the south shared with me by my South Carolina sister. 3 ingredients.
1 cup self rising flour
2 tablespoons of regular mayonnaise
1 cup of water.
Stir together and drop onto ungreased cookie sheet @ 450° for about 8 minutes. They are very light in color. Tips are just slightly beginning to brown, bottom will have more color. Fluffy and delicious with sausage gravy or just butter/jam. Try them and let me know what you think. 😋
I added more flour to bring them to the consistency I needed to roll out. Little less water too. Melted 2 T butter in pan and coated biscuits as I placed in pan. Baked 12 minutes @ 425 in my toaster oven!? Perfect! Served with bacon gravy 😋 This is a keeper! Thanks for sharing 🤗
Thank you, Michele! We’re so glad you were able to make it work and enjoyed it!
Delish! So light and fluffy! Best biscuits I’ve ever made!
I don’t know what I did wrong but the dough was like cake mix. I added bisquick to try and thicken it up but it didn’t help. I put them on a cookie sheet and hopefully they taste good. Your recipe might be sticky but cake dough! I used over a 1/2 box of Bisquick.
Try again and be sure to double check the instructions. The butter does not go in the mix. The bisquits are really good.
Can you use sugar free Sprite?
Delicious!! Light and fluffy and tasty 😋 Perfect! I used ginger ale bc I didn’t have Sprite.
Mine didn’t rise, they were still flaky and delicious. I will try these in my cast iron skillet next time and make smaller biscuits.
Followed directions exactly. Did not rise. No flavor. Didn’t bake all the way through even after 5 extra minutes.
These are amazing! Family loved them and very, very easy to make.
Surprise! Monday morning fresh biscuits. I used Greek yogurt, everything else the same. Baked beautifully and had a soft texture inside. Delicious!!!
Umm … that’s 4 ingredients.
These are the simplest, best tasting biscuits . They have a light texture. I didnt have sprite so used Mt. Dew with worked just fine. Will make again!
Love these biscuits and so easy when you can’t get around go
Best biscuits I have ever had, they are crumbly and soft they are Better then kfc biscuits. They were very easy to make and cast iron skillet worked perfectly
