With this Homemade Bisquick Mix, you’ll never have to buy Bisquick again! It only requires four ingredients and tastes just like the real thing. You can substitute it in any recipe that calls for Bisquick and you can’t even tell the difference.
Have I got something awesome for you today. Raise your hand if you’ve ever bought a box of Bisquick. {Sarah raises both hands, because she’s bought who-knows-how-many boxes.} Sure, it’s not all that expensive, but, when you have a daughter like mine that could eat blueberry pancakes every morning of her life, we go through Bisquick like it’s going out of style!
My little brother was visiting from out of town all last week and we got reminiscing about the good ol’ days when my dad would make Strawberry Shortcake every Sunday. Then, just like that, we found ourselves with a major craving for strawberry shortcake. I realized that I had just used the last bit of Bisquick though and had no desire to leave the house.
Cue this recipe. It tastes just like the original Bisquick and after making that Strawberry Shortcake, I can tell you that it works perfectly in recipes that call for Bisquick! You, my friends, will never have to buy another box of Bisquick again. #yourewelcome

I love having my own baking mixes on hand Sarah! This looks great!
Love this! So easy and perfect for 100% from scratch cooking 🙂
How about making it lactose free and a little more healthy….
Almond flour or another
Coconut oil
I already use almond/coconut milk with my Bisquick but changing to almond flour adds protein! And coconut oil is so much healthier and has great shelf life.
Some of us like to live a little!!
Tired of all the “health” (& disgusting) recipes!
Thanks for sharing your recipe! I’ll have to try it with my boys 🙂
does it have to be shortning or can you use a butter or oil ??
How long is the shelf life on this? Can I make it ahead and store it in an airtight container or do I need to make it as I use it?
Could I use self-rising flour and just leave out the salt and baking powder.
Glad I found this. Does it work well with whole wheat flour?
found your recipe for the biskit mix I just love it and love being able to make my own when I need it. I also love your site didn’t find a place to get your updates but if you have one sign me up!
Sounds great. I make alot of pancakes for my granddaughters! ! Question though, does it have to be refrigerated? ?
what kind of vegetableshortening do you use
I would make this if it was gluten free
I like that it can be divided in half and thirds easily so I don’t have to have a lot left over, since this isn’t something I use often! I’m trying this for the first time today.
I love this mix. My daughter gave it to me as typically I bake and cook a lot. Thank you for availing it.
