FAQs

What are the ingredients in Bisquick gluten free mix? ›

Ingredients: Rice Flour, Sugar, Leavening (baking soda, sodium aluminum phosphate, monocalcium phosphate), Modified Potato Starch, Salt, Xanthan Gum.

Use Cold Butter for Biscuits

When the biscuit bakes, the butter will melt, releasing steam and creating pockets of air. This makes the biscuits airy and flaky on the inside.

Coating your tools with flour instead of putting it directly on the dough will ensure that the proper amount ends up in your biscuits, keeping them flaky but not crumbly.

You can use water or non-dairy milk instead.

When all-purpose flour won't cut it, stock your pantry with additional gluten free flours, like oat flour, nut flours, bean flours, even powdered dry milk and others. You'll also need binders, like xanthan gum or psyllium husk, to adjust the structure in what you're baking.

One difference I would like to point out is that the GF Bisquick does not contain shortening in the mix, like the original Bisquick does.

Self-rising flour is great for biscuits for a number of reasons: It's often made with soft (low protein) Southern wheat. Look for White Lily or Martha White flours. I haven't tried King Arthur self-rising flour but their products are usually excellent.

Buttermilk adds a tangy flavor to the biscuits and makes them slightly more tender. Butter: We use salted European butter in this recipe. It will work with unsalted or salted butter. I like the extra saltiness of salted butter, but you can reduce the salt to 3/4 teaspoon if you prefer.

Why are my biscuits heavy and why didn't they rise? o Not enough Bisquick or too much liquid. o Too little or too gentle kneading. o Dough stood too long before baking.

Why are my Bisquick biscuits doughy in the middle? ›

The inside of the cookie is undercooked but the outside is cooked. You're either not cooking them long enough, or you're using too high a temperature. What's the key to making homemade buttermilk biscuits rise really fluffy?

Chemical leaveners lose potency as they age. I'm not sure if Bisquick uses baking soda or baking powder or both, but they don't work as well once they get too old. You can either add some fresh baking powder to your recipe, or get rid of the Bisquick and use flour and chemical leaveners instead.

The flavor will definitely be affected, but in theory the texture should be the same if you use equivalent amounts of both fat and water. Biscuits are basically the same thing as scones, so you may be able to find a scone recipe you like if you can't find a biscuit one.

If you add too much liquid, it will not ruin the biscuits, but the dough will be very sticky and more difficult to work with. If you find your dough is too sticky, you may add a bit more all-purpose flour OR you can make them more like drop biscuits (dropping balls of dough on a pan instead of rolling out the dough.

Yes, you can substitute Bisquick with a combination of flour, baking powder, salt, and shortening or butter. For every cup of Bisquick needed in a recipe, use 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1½ teaspoons baking powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and 2 tablespoons shortening or cold butter.
