I was on a quest to make some Homemade Biscuits to accompany my Spaghetti Casserole dish and this is the biscuit recipe I ended up by making.
Sure you can buy pre-made biscuits in a can and call it a day. But every now and then it’s nice to have some homemade biscuits.
I realize that many of you don’t like working with dough but this recipe is forgiving enough even for a beginner. I highly recommend you also try my Cast Iron Skillet Buttermilk Biscuits recipe. They are to die for!
Looking for a biscuit with a little more sweetness to them? Then you must try my Cinnamon Apple Biscuit recipe. Or for a cheesier biscuit, give my Cheddar Cheese Biscuits recipe a shot. Easy to make and delicious.
Bisquick Substitute
If you don’t have any Bisquick on hand, you can make your own by combining 1 Cup All Purpose Flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder, 1/2 teaspoon Salt and 1 tablespoon melted unsalted butter (or vegetable oil).

Gather your Ingredients
You will need the following ingredients to make this Homemade Buttery Biscuits recipe (see recipe card for quantities): Unsalted Butter, Bisquick, 7-Up and Sour Cream.
How to Make Homemade Buttery Biscuits
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Put the butter in a 9 x 13 baking dish and place the dish in the oven until the butter is melted. Remove the dish from the oven.
- In a large mixing bowl, stir together the Bisquick, 7-Up and sour cream. The dough will be sticky so you may want to coat your hands in Bisquick before kneading the dough.
- Turn the dough onto a Bisquick floured work surface. You may need to sprinkle a little more of the Bisquick mix into the dough if you find that it’s too sticky. Roll the dough until it’s 1 inch thick.
- Cut circles out of the dough using a round cutter (or you can use anything that is round) to make the biscuits.
- Place the biscuits in the pan of melted butter. Bake until the biscuits are golden brown which typically takes 12 to 15 minutes depending on your oven.
- Remove from the dish from the oven and let the biscuits sit and soak in all of the melted butter until cooled.

Notes
I have made biscuits before, but I have never had much success until I tried this recipe. They turned out great and were very flakey. They were even good the second day. I will make this recipe again.
