Biscuit Baking Mix



Instead of buying Bisquick to make biscuits and pancakes, make your own

at home.



INGREDIENTS:



10 cups flour

1/3 cup baking powder

1 Tablespoon salt

2 cups shortening



PREPARATION:



Sift flour, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl. With two

knives or a pastry blender, add the shortening in spoonfuls and cut it

in until the mixture is the texture of coarse cornmeal. If you are using

a food processor, start and stop it often during processing and watch

carefully.



Keep mix stored in a labeled, tightly closed container. It will keep on

the pantry shelf for 1 to 6 months in dry weather. In hot or humid

weather, it is a good idea to keep the mix in the fridge.



This mix keeps well in the pantry so it makes it easy to make shortcake,

biscuits or top off a casserole.



Yield: about 10 cups of mix
