Ingredients
Instructions
- Melt the butter.
- Mix sour cream, melted butter, and Bisquick until combined.
- Spoon the batter into a muffin tin.
- Bake at 400°F until lightly browned.
Tips & Substitutions
For a lighter texture, you can substitute half of the sour cream with Greek yogurt. If you don't have Bisquick, mix 1 cup of all-purpose flour with 1 1/2 tsp baking powder and a pinch of salt. Make sure the butter is fully melted but not boiling, as this helps in achieving a tender biscuit. For a sweet twist, consider adding a tablespoon of sugar to the batter.
Serving Suggestions
These sour cream biscuits are perfect for breakfast or brunch and pair beautifully with scrambled eggs or a side of fruit. For a delightful dessert, serve them alongside a dollop of fresh whipped cream and berries. They also make a great accompaniment to savory dishes like Scalloped Hash Brown Potatoes, enhancing any meal.
Storage & Reheating
To store leftovers, place the cooled biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, refrigerate them for up to a week. To reheat, place them in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 5-10 minutes until warmed through. This helps restore their soft texture.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make these biscuits ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the dough in advance and refrigerate it for a few hours before baking. Just make sure to bring the dough to room temperature before spooning it into the muffin tin. This will ensure they bake evenly and maintain their fluffy texture.
What can I use if I don't have sour cream?
If you don't have sour cream, plain yogurt is a great substitute. Alternatively, you can mix equal parts cream cheese and milk to create a similar consistency and tangy flavor. This will maintain the moisture needed for the biscuits.
How do I know when the biscuits are done?
The biscuits are done when they are lightly browned on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Keep an eye on them while baking, as oven temperatures can vary, and you don't want them to overbake.
