WHAT IS BISQUICK?
It is a premade baking mix that you can use to make biscuits, dumplings and more. The mix has everything you need and is really handy.
However, it can’t really add up buying this at the store. Make it at home and save money!
Homemade bisquick mix ingredients:
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ tablespoons baking powder
- 1 ½ teaspoons salt
- ½ cup (1 stick) butter, cold and cubed
How to make homemade bisquick:
You will need a large mixing bowl. Next, whisk together flour, baking powder and salt.
Cut butter into flour mixture using a pastry blender or fork. Transfer to airtight container and store in refrigerator for up to 3 months.
You can also use the Food Processor Method if you prefer. Just add flour, baking powder and salt to food processor. Pulse to combine.
Add butter and pulse until mixture is coarse and resembles cornmeal. Transfer to airtight container and store in refrigerator for up to 3 months.
If you need a food processor, we like this food processor on Amazon. You could also use this mini food processor but it won’t get the ingredients as fine.

I do not have room in my refrigerator to store anything. Could I mix in everything but the butter and keep it shelf stable? Then when I make it cut in the butter and milk at the same time? It would still save me a lot of time this way as well.
Yes, I think that would work great!
