It was an accident. I promise. I didn't intend to make biscuits with beer. It just happened. But man are these beer biscuits so good. You will want to make them every single night of the week.
I was really trying to make these 7-UP biscuits from Plain Chicken's blog. However, if you love beer bread, you will love this recipe.
Honest. I started with my Bisquick. I also got the oven cranked to 450 degrees.
Combined to make a crust like consistency almost. See. Crumbly.
Now time for the 7-Up or Sprite or other clear, bubbly lemon-lime pop. Insert swearing under my breath when I can't find any in my house or garage.
In comes plan B!
I grabbed a can of the husband's brew. He was gone. His is cheaper than mine. Really, I just didn't want to waste on of my 312s on this just in case it flopped.
Measured out ½ cup and poured it into the Bisquick mix.
Dust the counter top with some, well really quite a bit of, Bisquick. The dough is STICKY! Go ahead and toss some Bisquick on top of the dough too. Pat it sort of flat.
I put a ½ stick of butter in a round, or you could use a square, cake pan. Popped the pan in the oven to melt the butter.
When it was melted I cut out biscuits with a round biscuit cutter. A knife would do the job too. You will get between 7-9 biscuits depending on the the size of them.
Then toss them in the oven for about 12-15 minutes.
They grow together and form a butter crisp bottom with fluffy, pillowy insides. They were a great addition to our three cheese baked spaghetti. I am not sure I will ever try the version with pop. The beer version is too good. Plus, someone had to finish the beer!
Beer Biscuits
Ingredients
- 2 cups bisquick
- ½ cup sour cream
- ½ cup of beer
- 4 tablespoons of butter
Instructions
- Cut sour cream into the Bisquick to make a crumbly mixture.
- Add beer and stir to combine. The dough will be very soft and sticky.
- Place three tablespoons of the butter in a round or square 9-inch cake pan. Place in a 450 degree oven till butter is just melted.
- Remove pan and then drop 7-9 biscuits into butter. Melt remaining tablespoon of butter and pour over biscuits.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes on 450 degrees.
And yes, the kids and I ate the whole pan. What can I say, we are carb loaders:)

Yum! I've made them with sprite and will have to try beer next time. Now I'm off to search your blog for that baked spaghetti recipe.
Where's the recipe for the 3 cheese baked spaghetti?
Is it too early for beer bisquits now?
These sound awesome! I already love beer bread, so I bet these are even better! 🙂
Yumm! Must try.
DOn't know if you follow It's a Small Town Life, but I made her 7-up biscuits, and they were divine! I'm sure these are just as good as I am a huge fan of beer bread too!.
These look so good! Can't wait to try them. I'd love if you would drop by and link up to my Super Bowl Eats and Treats Party! Your beer biscuits will fit right in!!
