Don't we all like some surprise baked goodies? Well, having some instant flour mix around certainly makes spontaneous baking much faster and cleanup easier, and thus, more likely to occur! :) However, you'll find yourself using this DIY Bisquick for much more than just baking. You can make pancakes, waffles, and who knows what else! Plus, you have total control over what goes into the mix. Want whole wheat and butter? You got it! White flour and shortening? No problem!

Not sure where to start? Try these biscuits (Cranberry Brie, Cinnamon Cranberry, Garlicky Cheddar), flatbreads (basic, cheesy), breadsticks (Cheesy Peppered, Cheesy Garlic) or even pancakes!

    I've been doing this for some time now and it is so much tastier! I began making my own as it was much healthier but I love being able to adjust it to make it your own :) Great tip!

  2. If you use butter instead of shortening do you need to store it in the fridge?

    Thanks! :)

    1. I'm not sure. I use butter, and I store it refrigerated. I'd say to stay on the safe side and refrigerate. :)

  3. Sorry...one more question. Is there a difference between milk powder and powdered milk? I've heard some people say there is a difference and others say there's not.

    1. Glad to answer questions! I'm not sure if they're technically the same thing, but in this case, I'm using the terms interchangeably. Sorry for any confusion and thanks for asking! :)

  4. I saw your comment on Marilyn treats and your link to this post. I am so glad to find it.
    I love Bisquick and the gluten free Bisquick but not all the chemicals. Pinning this recipe and linking it to my Bisquick quiche post where I said I wish I had a recipe to make my own. Thanks so much
