Bisquick is a combination of flour, baking soda, salt, sugar and baking powder making it the all time favorite for those of us who want to cut cooking time in half!.
I have had many instances where I ran out of Bisquick and did it by scratch using the above!. Not knowing what you are planning, I cannot realistically give you the accurate amounts to use, but I know for some things will call for 2 cups flour, 1/8 tsp!. salt, 1 tsp!. baking soda, 1 tsp baking powder and the sugar amount will depend on what you are making (i!.e!. cake would be 1-2 cups, etc!.) So good luck!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

if you said what it is for, I could possibly send a recipe for it!. Baking mix is pretty much a good biscuit recipe without the liquid added and that is what I would do but I usually have a from scratch recipe for anything I would need that calls for a mix!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
