I don’t keep Bisquick in the house – mostly because I don’t really use it. Occasionally I find the need for it and am certainly not going to go buy a big box of it. This recipe saves the day. It yields about 3 and a half cups, which is usually enough for my purposes. It is easily doubled if you use Bisquick more frequently and would like to stop paying an arm and a leg for it.
Homemade Bisquick

- Cut in shortening with a pastry blender until mixture resembles fine crumbs.
