Quick Sour Cream Biscuits are soft, tender, and buttery treats with a subtle tang from the sour cream. Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or as a side, these biscuits come together rapidly and require minimal effort, making them ideal for busy mornings or last-minute gatherings.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Mix Bisquick, melted butter, and sour cream together until well combined.
- Drop spoonfuls of the batter into a small muffin pan.
- Bake at 450°F until light brown, about 12 minutes.
Tips & Substitutions
For a lighter texture, consider substituting half of the sour cream with Greek yogurt. If you don't have Bisquick, you can make a homemade version using flour, baking powder, and salt. Keep an eye on the baking time as ovens can vary, ensuring the biscuits are golden brown for best results.
Serving Suggestions
These Quick Sour Cream Biscuits are perfect alongside soups or stews, like a hearty vegetable soup. They also make a delightful side for breakfast dishes, pairing wonderfully with scrambled eggs or even French Toast Daddy Style. Consider serving with butter or a fruit jam for a sweet touch.

Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, refrigerate for up to a week. To reheat, place biscuits in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 5-7 minutes until warmed through and slightly crisp.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make the dough ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the dough in advance and store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Just be sure to let it come to room temperature before baking for the best rise and texture.
What can I use instead of Bisquick?
If you don't have Bisquick, you can create a homemade mix using 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. This will work just as well in this recipe.
How do I know when the biscuits are done baking?
The biscuits are done when they are light golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Keep an eye on them, as they can quickly go from perfect to overbaked.
