Tonight I made cream biscuits with grated cheese.  I saw a biscuit recipe with mayonnaise.  I'd love to find some good recipes for biscuits made with different ingredients.

If you love bicuits, and want the ultimate in variety.  Buy Nathalie Dupree's  "Southern Biscuits".  It is amazing.  

16.99

There are a few recipes with written instructions, step by step.  I made her cream biscuits, that are heavy cream and white lily flours. Only 2 ingredients.  Melt in your mouth !

I could make a meal of these biscuits, then put butter and honey on them for dessert!

BTW, I learned flour is the key to biscuit sucess.  There is a time and place for AP, and self rising flours, and she has recipes for both.  I love the fact she discusses flours and leavenings in great detail in the preface of the cookbook.

I live in California, and never heard of White Lily until now.  Oh my, I ordered  some 1 pound bags from Amazon and I have never felt such a soft fluffy flour in my life.  I am a cook cook, but not a professional pastry chef, so I was amazed.  I use the white Lily also for gravy and other things, it is a superior flour.  Doesn't cost anymore than any other flour, just better

You should try sweet potato biscuits....really good! I will look for my recipe- I usually do them by "feel"...

Also adding fresh minced herbs to you regular biscuits is fun and good too..chives, tarragon, thyme, rosemary just to name some thatI have tried..

I love Nathalie Dupree.   She used to have a cooking show on PBS a long, long time ago  --  probably 20 years ago.  She always had the best looking food on the show...

These are delish!

7up Sour Cream Biscuits (makes 9)

2 cups of baking mix (reg or gluten free)
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup 7up soda
1/4 cup melted butter

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

Cut the sour cream into your biscuit mix. "Cutting in" is simply incorporating your sour cream, butter or shortening into your dry baking mix without using a mixer. You can use a fork, knife, pastry cutter or the tools God gave you, your fingers. You just want to make sure that each portion of your {wet} ingredient gets coated with the dry mix.

Stir in 1/2 cup 7 Up. The dough will be very soft, don't worry. Sprinkle additional baking mix on to your counter, about a 1/2 cup seems to work just fine.

Knead and fold dough until coated with your baking mix. Pat dough out, (no rolling pin needed) and cut biscuits using a round biscuit/cookie cutter. Don't have one, no problem, you can certainly use a glass or empty soup can to cut out your biscuits. Where there's a will, there's a way! Improvising is fine.

Melt butter in a 9 inch square pan. I stick my pan and butter in the oven for a few minutes. Just a few though, the butter will burn, so watch it. Place cut biscuits on top of melted butter and bake for 12-15 minutes or until brown.

She was also one of the first chef's featured on the fledging Food Network . . . I can still remember how lovely her shows were and I hunted down one or two of her baking cook books for my mom . . .

That is the exact same recipe that Miss Kaye from Duck Dynasty uses and I have not tried it due to her using a cast iron skillet.   I thought it might make a big difference in how they looked and taste.

Thanks for posting this now I can try with my regular baking sheet!!  Bring on the HONEY!!

My grannie made sweet potato biscuits and she made them by feel and hand, no rolling them out, and she baked the sweet potatoes (which I hated, but would eat these), and she made them very thin....the kind you could not cut and put butter between them, but rather put the butter on top and let it melt after they were out of the oven, and the butter would stay in the groves she made with her near fisted hands, but with the fingers........OH MY GOSH.......

Funny I do not like sweet potatoes (strings would gag me if they even had one), and I sure did not eat (and yes Southern), home made biscuits..........GO figure.......  Such memories...Thanks.....

I always watched her.......AND she could make the biggest messes in the kitchen, and she would say....Now I am sure you will not make this big of a mess...........
