DIY Bisquick Mix

Homemade Bisquick costs me pennies to make.  I watch for sales on butter or shortening, whichever I find on sale is what recipe I make.  My challenge to you is make homemade quick and convenient items — save yourself time AND money!!

I have 2 different versions, depending on what ingredients I have found on sale.  Use the homemade Bisquick like you would store bought.

Store your Homemade Bisquick recipes in the freezer to preserve them longer.

Homemade Bisquick Mix -#1

  • 6 cups all-purpose flour, sifted
  • 3 tablespoons baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter

Sift flour, then mix in baking powder and salt.   Mix thoroughly.   Cut butter into flour mixture using a fork and knife or a pastry cutter.  Store in air tight container refrigerator.*

Do you think you would need to make any variations to recipe, besides changing flour to make gluten free version?

Hmmm, I haven’t made a gluten free version. However, I searched for one and found this — http://www.food.com/recipe/gluten-free-bisquick-mix-45611
