Beat egg and oil. Add pancake mix.

Add 1 cup 7-up. Stir until most lumps have disappeared. Gently stir in additional 7-up.

Bake on medium heat griddle, turning once.


Utilizing one of America's favorite sodas, this unique recipe is a must-try.

Says to use 2 cups of pancake mix. Does recipe apply with egg and oil if you have mix where you just add water?

I have tried everything it seems, to make fluffy light pancakes and this is by far the best recipe. Not too sure about some of these negative comments... maybe they are over mixing.

I own a restaurant and make my pancakes this way. My seats are full every morning for pancakes. Award winning pancakes. Thanks to 7up - I'm rich.

I can't believe there are so many negative comments... My family LOVED this. Maybe you're mixing the batter too much? My pancakes were wonderfully fluffy, and, of course, still tasted like pancakes. I am pretty sure the whole point of the 7UP is not about the taste, it's about texture.

This made great pancakes, but to be honest, I didn't notice much difference from when I use water instead of 7-Up... maybe just a little sweeter. Good recipe, but nothing I'd make again.

I didn't love it. Regular pancakes and pancakes from a mix taste better than this.

To be honest, we didn't try them. We did make root beer floats though, there is a 'must try' and a very filling breakfast.

They were the best pancakes ever. I really liked them. They made me full! Next time I want to try root beer, has anyone else tried a different soda flavor?

We tried this because we were looking for goofy recipes. It didn't taste goofy. The taste of 7-up cooks off and it just tasted like pancakes to me. It was good, but not particularly special.

They were ok. Kind of spongy. I think I will try it like BAG DAD says might be better that way.

Okay... it worked fine and was good... we used Archer Farms brand pancake mix... but I was surprised that it wasn't all that different from using water like the mix directs. I liked it, but will probably just follow the mix instructions next time.

Try it like this: make the pancake mix according to directions with a little less liquid so the batter is dry. Add enough 7-up so the batter is the desired consitency (less than 1/4 cup usually). Forget the egg and oil and cook pancakes. This made light pancakes with a fun 7-up flavor. Some people might think it's wierd, but we liked them a lot.
