Comments

  1. Use this mix in place of Bisquick/ You can follow the receipes on the Bisquick box.

  2. This mastermix recipe is meant to be used in other recipes that calls for the “mastermix” it is not a stand alone recipe.

  3. This is what I’ve been looking for for a long time! I’ve been trying to find a good mix that I could pre-make and keep for awhile. I’ve used one that’s store-bought, but it didn’t give me the results I was looking for. Thanks for this recipe! (at first I didn’t see the ingredient list..but looked a second time and found the “materials” needed!)

  4. How much are you meant to use? What do you bake it at? Pretty vague recipe!

  5. This is great to keep on hand.Especially during the holidays,but even throughout the year for those last minute gifts.
