Easy Biscuit Recipe--Only Three Ingredients

For fluffy biscuits every time, you must try this recpe. You only need three ingredients: Bisquick, sour cream and club soda.

That's it. They taste like they came from a much more complicated recipe. My first try was biscuit topped chicken pie. It was delicious. The next Sunday we had biscuits and gravy and my husband said "best ever" so I knew we had a winner. Top with butter, honey, or jelly for breakfast or split and fill with bacon, egg, and cheese. Try them in chicken and dumplings. Just roll into small balls and drop into stew. Awesome!


  • Collect your box of Bisquick, carton of sour cream and bottle of club soda. Preheat your oven to 450 degrees.
  • In a large bowl mix 2 cups of Bisquick and 1/4 cup sour cream. Start mixing and add enough club soda about 2/3 cup, to make a stiff, slightly sticky dough.

  • Scrape out onto wax paper sprinkled with Bisquick. Knead a few times until smooth. Add a little more Bisquick if too sticky.
  • Scrape dough onto waxed paper sprinkled with Bisquick and knead a few times until dough holds together.
  • Pat into round about 1/2" thick.
  • Cut dough with biscuit cutter or upturned glass dipped in Bisquick and place on cookie sheet.
  • You should have around 12. Recipe doubles nicely.
  • Bake for 20 minutes or until tops are golden brown. 

  • Remove from oven and brush tops with melted butter if desired.
    
  • DELICIOUS! These biscuits are a little on the dry side to hold toppings and gravy well. For a moister biscuit, add a little more sour cream and a splash more club soda. If it's too sticky, add more Bisquick. It is quite correctable. This recipe has never failed me! Try it!
