Homemade Bisquick Mix

Homemade Bisquick Mix

8 cups flour
1/4 cup baking powder
1 1/2 cups powdered milk
1 Tbs salt
1 1/2 cups or shortening or butter

Combine all dry ingredients in a large bowl. Using a pastry blender cut in shortening until it’s well mixed. Store in covered container. You can use this in any bisquick mix recipe. I found this online but cannot remember where. I just thought I would share with you.

* I store mine in smaller containers because there are just 2 of us here now and this mix last a long time. I keep one out and the others in the refrigerator until I need them. I will be sharing bisquick recipes soon that you can use with this homemade mix. I hope you enjoy!
