Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup shortening
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup 7-UP soda (room temperature)
  • 1/4 cup butter (melted, for brushing)

  • Whisk
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Baking Sheet
  • Parchment Paper
  • Rolling Pin

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Step 1: Preheat the Oven. Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). This step ensures that your biscuits will bake quickly and rise beautifully.
  2. Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients. In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk them together until fully incorporated.
  3. Step 3: Cut in Shortening. Add the shortening to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Step 4: Add Wet Ingredients. Gently fold in the sour cream and 7-UP soda. Mix until the dough just comes together; be careful not to overmix.
  5. Step 5: Shape the Dough. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. If you prefer, roll it out to about 1-inch thickness. Cut out biscuits with a round cutter or a glass.
  6. Step 6: Bake the Biscuits. Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving space between each biscuit. Brush the tops with melted butter. Bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
  7. Step 7: Serve and Enjoy! Once baked, take the biscuits out of the oven and let them cool slightly. Serve warm with your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • Store leftover biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
  • Refrigerate for up to a week if you need to keep them longer.
  • Freeze unbaked biscuits for easy baking later; add a few extra minutes to the baking time if baking from frozen.
