Steps:

  • A lot of lovely looking American recipes use Bisquick, which is hard to get and hugely expensive over here. This is the home made variation of Bisquick that I use all the time. 8 Cups Flour 1 1/4 Cups Nonfat Dry Milk Powder 1/4 Cup Baking Powder 1 Tbsp Salt 2 Cups vegetable lard or butter (I use butter) Combine flour, milk, baking powder, and salt in a very large bowl. Cut in lard/butter until it resembles fine breadcrumbs. Makes about 10 cups. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1-2 months.
  • Thank you very much to Linda Kauppinen for her English mixed spice recipe :)
