A basic homemade baking mix to have on hand for the

sheer convenience of saving you time in the kitchen.

It has many uses, including being the base for making

biscuits, pancakes, waffles, dumplings and recipes

calling for biscuit or baking mix.

 

 

Basic All-Purpose Baking Mix

 

6 cups all purpose flour

3 tablespoons baking powder

1 tablespoon salt

1 1/4 cups vegetable shortening (butter-flavored or

plain)

 

Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a large

bowl.

Cut in shortening with pastry blender until mixture

resembles coarse corn meal. Store in a container with

tight-fitting lid. Will keep for up to 2 months.

Makes about 2 quarts.

 

For Biscuits: Stir together 2 1/4 cups baking mix with

2/3 cup milk. Knead 10 times on lightly floured

surface, roll out and cut into biscuits or skip the

kneading and simply drop dough onto an ungreased

baking sheet. Bake at 425*F for 10 to 12 minutes or

until lightly browned. Makes about 10 biscuits.

 

For Pancakes: Stir together 2 cups baking mix, 1 cup

milk and 2 eggs until blended. Do not over-mix. Ladle

1/4 cupfuls onto hot greased griddle or skillet and

cook until edges are dry and top is bubbly, turn over

and cook until golden brown. Makes about 14 pancakes.

 

For Waffles: Stir together 2 cups baking mix, 1 1/3

cups milk, 1 egg and 2 tablespoons vegetable oil until

blended. Pour batter into center of hot greased waffle

iron and cook for 5 minutes or until steaming stops.

Makes about 12 (4-inch) waffles.

 

For Dumplings: Stir together 2 cups baking mix and 2/3

cup milk just until soft dough forms. Drop by

spoonfuls into boiling liquid, cover and cook for 10

minutes without lifting the lid. Makes about 10

dumplings.

 

Tip: For Buttermilk Baking Mix, add 9 tablespoons dry

buttermilk powder to the basic mix.
