go to google and request: baking mix -- this one came from About.com Instead of buying Bisquick baking mix, make your own at home with a few simple ingredients. Prep Time: 10 minutes Total Time: 10 minutes Ingredients:


 * 8 cups all-purpose flour (or 4 cups each all-purpose flour and whole wheat flour)
 * 2 Tablespoons baking powder
 * 1 Tablespoon salt
 * 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
 * 1 teaspoon baking soda
 * 2 cups dry nonfat milk
 * 2 cups shortening

Preparation: Mix flour, baking powder, salt, cream of tartar, baking soda, nonfat milk, and shortening together in large bowl (if you have a large mixer it is ideal to use for blending this mix but it can also be done quite adequately using a pastry blender to cut in shortening). Add shortening about a half cup at a time mixing well after each addition. Mixture will be mealy when mixed adequately.

Put in air-tight container and store either in refrigerator or at room temperature. Use within about 3 months. NOTE: For Muffins: Mix 2 cups of Baking Mix with 2 Tablespoons sugar, 1 beaten egg and 2/3 cup milk. Bake at 400 degrees F for 15 minutes.
