THE MASTER MIX (HOMEMADE BISQUICK SUBSTITUTE)



The Master Mix (Homemade Bisquick Substitute) image

This recipe is in response to a discussion on the boards about Bisquick. Bisquick is apparently not available in the country where the originator of the thread lives. I prefer to use this in recipes that call for 'Bisquick' rather than purchase it, myself. If stored in the freezer, this will keep for several months. I hope you find this as handy as I do, since I could never keep 'Bisquick' on hand before. If I recall correctly, I think this came from one of my Make a Mix Cookery cookbooks.

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 c all purpose flour , not self rising
1/3 c baking powder
2 tsp salt
8 tsp granulated sugar
1 c crisco shortening, only

Steps:

  • 1. Measure out the flour, baking powder, salt, sugar and shortening into a deep mixing bowl. Mix ingredients together with a hand held mixer or a food processor.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the taste of your biscuits.
  • Follow the recipe carefully. Don't skip any steps or substitute ingredients.
  • Work quickly and don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the biscuits tough.
