Buttermilk Baking Mix
I love making my own homemade convenience foods and this buttermilk baking mix is my favorite around the holidays. It makes whipping up a fresh batch of biscuits easy as pie. The same biscuit dough makes a great topping for pot pies made from leftovers and this mix makes the most amazing waffles and pancakes. I hope you give it a try. It works in any recipe that calls for a baking mix like Bisquick.
- 10 1/2 cups flour
- 1/4 cup baking powder
- 1 1/2 tablespoons salt
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 cups shortening
- 1 cup buttermilk powder
- 1 1/2 tsp. baking soda
In a large bowl, mix all ingredients with an electric mixer until particles are small and uniform in size.
Store on a shelf in a tightly-covered container. Makes 13 cups mix. Storage life is approximately 3 months.
Use the buttermilk baking mix anywhere else you see Bisquick or Biscuit Mix called for. This gives your baking goods (like biscuits, pancakes and waffles) a richer flavor.
Here are two more homemade baking mix recipe. The first is for a whole wheat baking mix, the second for a traditional homemade baking mix.
