    This is a copycat Bisquik recipe. I  keep it in a zip to lock bag in the freezer and pull it out as needed. If you want to make it a bit more buttery, replace the shortening with butter flavored coconut oil (amazon affiliate link to my favorite brand).

    Ingredients
     

    • 10 cups flour
    • ⅓ cup baking powder
    • 2 cups vegetable shortening
    • 1 tablespoon salt

    Instructions
     

    • Combine all ingredients in a large bowl until thoroughly mixed. Store in air tight container. I usually keep mine in a zip to lock bag in the refrigerator or freezer

    For biscuits:

    2 ¼ cup baking mix
    ⅔ cup milk

    Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In medium bowl combine ingredients. Roll out on a floured counter to about 1" thick. Cut with biscuit cutters and bake until brown, about 7-10 minutes.

    For pancakes:

    2 cups baking mix
    1 cup milk
    2 eggs

    Combine ingredients and cook on a medium high griddle, turning once.

    Two of my favorite recipes using the mix:

    lemon blueberry scone on a plate with fresh blueberries
