Everything you need to know about Cooking with Bisquick
Before we dive into the best Bisquick recipes, let’s tackle some of the most common questions people ask when cooking and baking with Bisquick.
What is the difference between Bisquick and pancake mix?
Bisquick and pancake mix sure look the same. So what’s the big difference? In a word…sugar! Pancake mixes tend to contain just a bit more sugar for a slightly sweeter finished product than if you just used Bisquick.
Some people also add a bit more baking powder for extra rise if you are using pancake mix in recipes with Bisquick.
How is Bisquick different from flour?
Bisquick is different from flour because Bisquick combines several ingredients. Bisquick is made with self-rising flour. It also contains a leavening agent, shortening, sugar, and salt. Think of it as flour plus fat.
Is Bisquick unhealthy?
Bisquick isn’t unhealthy, but it does contain trans fat. Rather than worrying about Bisquick itself, consider the whole recipe. What other ingredients are you using and what side dishes will accompany the meal? You can also look for homemade recipes to have more control over the ingredients.
Can you use Bisquick for flour?
Sort of! Bisquick and flour aren’t exactly interchangeable because they’re two different things. Flour is, well, flour. Remember that Bisquick is flour plus fat.
One cup of Bisquick contains 1.5 teaspoons of baking powder and 3 teaspoons of shortening. Examine the recipe you intend to use and see if you will need to add more of these ingredients. For example, if the recipe calls for one cup of flour and two teaspoons of baking powder, you want to make sure that you only add a half teaspoon of baking powder.
How long does Bisquick last after opening?
Like most baking ingredients, how long they last depend on how they are stored. If you use an air-tight container, you can expect Bisquick to last for about one year after opening. Given how much we love these best Bisquick recipes, we doubt your Bisquick will last that long!

Serve these sausage balls as sides or appetizers. They come together in minutes and are deliciously bite sized. Serve them up with a variety of sauces in ramekins to let your family or your guests find their favorite flavor combo.

I’ll admit it. When it comes to corn fritters, I usually think of this as a treat when I’m dining out. They seem equal parts complicated and messy. Thankfully, this Bisquick recipe proves me wrong. The outside gets crispy and the inside stays tender. You’ll have them hot on your plate in a half an hour!

We will spare you the full science lesson, but suffice to say that these ingredients separate into the tastiest layers you’ve ever seen. Bisquick blends together with chocolate, butter, eggs, and sugar. Once you’re done blending, pour it into a pie pan and prepare to be surprised and delighted when you see what comes out of the over.
31. Easy Chocolate Pudding Cake
A handful of ingredients combines to make the most scrumptious pudding cake. If you aren’t familiar with pudding cake, it’s a type of cake that borders on a souffle. The middle is sauce-like while the outside remains cake-like. One bite will win you over!
32. Bisquick Brownies
I promise that these brownies can go toe-to-toe (plate-to-plate?) with any brownie from your local bakery.
