SOUR CREAM BISCUITS
There are only 3 ingredients in these biscuits which might make you skeptical but the taste is shockingly good. You know I love these Cheddar Bay Biscuits but I literally can have these in the oven in under 5 minutes. So easy!
They have a soft buttery inside and the sour cream gives them such a unique flavor. They are wonderful warm.
Just pop them in the microwave for 10 seconds if you don’t eat them right away. They are great with add ins like cheese and bacon.
INGREDIENTS:
- SELF-RISING FLOUR – I realize not every has self-rising flour in their pantry. The notes of the recipe have an easy substitution of adding salt and baking powder.
- BUTTER
- SOUR CREAM

You can make mini versions too!

Surprising texture and flavor.

These look so good. I don’t like to cook but I think I could do these.
You totally could
Question: Can plain yogurt be substituted for sour cream?
I haven’t tried it but I don’t see why not
Delicious!! Perfect light side with a bowl of homemade soup.
Thank you!
Made these last night! Recipe I had was 1/2 therefore only made 6 nice sized biscuits. Very, very good fast and easy! Didn’t have sour cream so used plain Greek yogurt. All I know they were excellent with honey. Will definitely make again very soon.
Thank you!
I’d like to make these a couple weeks ahead. Can I freeze them after they’re baked?
Yes totally!
Try tossing them in grated Parmesan cheese while still warm. Marvelous !
Yum!
Thanks designed for sharing such a pleasant thinking, piece of writing
is good, thats why i have read it completely
Excelpent blg you have here.. It’s hard to find good quality writing like yours nowadays.
I honestly appreciate people like you! Take care!!
I every time spent my half an hour to read this webpage’s content everyday along with a mug of coffee.
It’s going to be finish of mine day, except before ennding I am reading this wonderful piece of writing tto improve my experience.
Yesterday I tried 2 batches… 1 sour cream 14% & 1 Blueberry Pomagranite (sp) Yogurt 1.5% they both turned out excellent and both we distinctively different.
My husband described the sour cream one as slightly salty but very pleasant, the Yogurt as a little sweet but equally delicious; then he put the together like a sandwich and said they went neutral…lol
if yogurt works…(to which I think it would) your limits are endless…. Vanilla, Blueberry, strawberry, mixed Berry mango…..oh wow….Cottage Cheese & Pineapple!
THANK YOU for the inspiration!
I have all the ingredients for this! They look so good and I love that they’re mini 🙂
Love these little biscuits! Perfect for sending home with dinner guests.
These look so good! I’m a sucker for any kind of biscuit and can easily eat 20 (okay, maybe not THAT many but a lot). And, I came across bamboo sheets for the first time a few months ago on vacation and I fell in love with them. I could not believe how soft they are!
These caught my eye – they look yummy!
That is funny about the sheets 🙂
This recipe looks awesome! Can’t wait to try it. 🙂
oh girl…I SO feel you on the sleep. Lucy and I were up last night from 3 -5 am …and then I could never get back to sleep, so here I am. Makes you feel like a crazy person!! These biscuits are exactly what i need right now…simple and full of carbs 🙂
These look so buttery good! I live how easy they are and I trust you on how delicious you say they are, so I’m gonna try them!!
Congrats on the full night of dreamy sleep! Your Instagram pic of your boys made me cringe and smile at the same time! I felt so bad for you and your boys!
I’m a little weird with my sheets too. When I get in bed, they have to be absolutely flat (no wrinkles under me) and the edge of the sheet folded perfectly over the comforter so I don’t feel it on my chin. I’t good to hear that someone else has a quirk like me. 🙂 Looking at those biscuits, I’d guess that they got the boys back on their feet right away. I do hope they’re better!
I’m having one of those tiring days… my head feels like it’s about to fall off 🙁 Putting this and the zuppa toscana on my to-make list for the weekend!
Reading your post makes me miss you even more:). Hire a baby sister (Alison is always great), and get some sleep my dear! How and when you get it all done amazes me!
Oh my gosh!!! I am the exact same way about my bed sheets (and I can’t believe I am admitting this). It drives my husband absolutely bonkers!! I can’t sleep if the sheets are not just right so like you I have gotten out of bed at like 2 in the morning to fix the sheets so I can fall back to sleep. I hear you on the whole losing sleep after a newborn. I always feel like a walking zombie for the first three months! Congrats on getting her to sleep for 7 hours, that is truly amazing!!!!!!
So, did you wake up panicked that she didn’t wake up earlier?! I spent a night sleeping on the floor next to the crib the first night mine went more than 4 hours. She slept beautifully though 🙂
Biscuits look yummy. Do you think yogurt could be subbed successfully? I have no issues with sour cream…but I always have Greek yogurt on hand.
Thanks and sweet dreams.
Yes. I thought she wasn’t okay so I kept checking on her. I definitely think yogurt could be substituted for the sour cream. Yogurt has a little bit more of a bitter taste.
