Homemade Bisquick Mix

June 8, 2014

Try this homemade Bisquick and ditch the boxed version!

Make your own homemade bisquick mix! Perfect for pancakes, waffles, biscuits and more!

As much as I love breakfast foods, I’m just not a morning person.  Most mornings, while the coffee is brewing, Ryon starts breakfast.  He normally cooks bacon and eggs or makes a hash, but some days he whips up pancakes.  The kids get really excited on pancake day.  [So does mama.]    Since me and mornings don’t get along to well, I decided to help in another way.  I whipped up a batch of homemade Bisquick mix to help make pancake days even better, for everyone! 

Ryon makes his pancakes from scratch and they are amazing!  So light and fluffy and toasted with butter on the outside.  Seriously, I think he’s a pancake master.  [Pancake master maker?  Master pancake maker?  Eh, they all work.]  But when hes done with pancake making, he tends to leave a mound of dishes behind.  Its like he uses a different dish for every ingredient.  I can’t really complain though.  He makes me coffee.  And pancakes.  Ok, I can complain a little. 

Easy homemade bisquick

I’m hoping that this homemade Bisquick mix solves the pancake master’s pile-o-dishes since you only need one bowl to mix the ingredients together.  And on days when I wake up early [ha!], then I know what to grab to make a quick breakfast for everyone.  So it helps with less dishes and with quick breakfasts in the mornings.  This mix is more then tasty, its a family problem solver!  [It must be a magical mix.]  Now if only it could make us coffee..

          Should be good up to two weeks and yes – keep it in the fridge. Hope that helps! 🙂

    Given the butter in this, does it need to refrigerated? If not, how long does it keep?

          450 and then bake for 8-12 minutes. Until your edges are golden brown. Hope that helps! 🙂

    Just wondering about making waffles with this

      I haven’t made waffles with them yet, but according to Bisquick you will need:

      2 mix
      1 1/3 cups milk
      1 egg
      2 tablespoons vegetable oil

      Hope that helps! And let me know how they turn out if you make them! 🙂
