FAQs

What can I use if I don't have enough Bisquick? ›

Yes, you can substitute Bisquick with a combination of flour, baking powder, salt, and shortening or butter. For every cup of Bisquick needed in a recipe, use 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1½ teaspoons baking powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and 2 tablespoons shortening or cold butter.

If you want to simplify it even further, you can make Bisquick pancakes with just water or your favorite milk alternative. They turn out a little flatter when using only water in the mix, but they still come out well and taste good.

Q: How should I store Bisquick mix? A: To keep Bisquick mix fresh, store it in an airtight container or plastic bag in a cool, dry place, like on your pantry shelf. For long-term storage, keep it in the refrigerator or freezer.

Using too little liquid can result in a dry dough that doesn't rise properly [1]. Other factors: Factors such as excessive dusting flour, excessive folding or kneading of the dough, rolling the dough too thin, or leaving the biscuits in the warmer for too long can also affect the rising of the Bisquick mix [1].

Can you make Bisquick pancakes without milk? Yes, you can make Bisquick pancakes with plant milk or water instead of cow's milk. I recommend using unsweetened almond milk or cashew milk. You can use sweetened plant milk for sweeter pancakes.

A spoiled Bisquick mix might appear clumpy, have green spots, or show signs of discoloration.

Note: Pancake batter will keep for 3 days, refrigerated. Little black dots may form on the batter's surface on days 2 and 3 - they're a harmless result of oxygenation. Just stir to combine. Add mix-ins such as nuts, fresh or dried fruit, or chocolate chips to the batter just before cooking.

How To Store Homemade Bisquick. Store homemade Bisquick in an airtight container like a mason jar. Be sure to label and date. It will last up to 3 months in a cool, dark place.

Bisquick went on sale in 1931 as a ready-to-bake biscuit mix and was, and still is, extremely popular. The product has been updated since its launch, adding buttermilk and more shortening, to create a fluffier and lighter texture. The brand also launched Bisquick Shake 'n Pour to further simplify the shortcut.

Why are my Bisquick biscuits so dense? ›

The reason: The butter has not been incorporated evenly, leaving pockets of your cooked biscuits that are dry, dense, and filled with flour. But even if you properly mix your biscuits, if your butter pieces are too large or inconsistently sized they may not get distributed evenly throughout the dough.

The number one reason pancake turn out dense or rubbery is… Over beating the batter. Aesthetically, we don't like to see lumps in our pancake batter. But with pancake batter, it is important to mix the batter just until most of the dry ingredients are incorporated.
