Preparation / Directions:
Combine well and store in a covered container. NOTE: The amount in this mix is for about 5 batches of use.
For Pancakes - Combine 2 1/4 cups baking mix with a mixture of 1 egg, 1 1/2 cups water, and 2 tblsp of vegetable oil. Stir until moistened. Your batter should be lumpy. Cook on a hot, greased griddle. Flip when bubbles break on the surface and the edges begin to dry
For Dumplings - Combine 2 cups baking mix with 1 cup of water (and spices or shredded cheese). Stir until mixed. Drop by spoonfuls into simmering soup or gravy. Cover and cook (without peeking) for 20 minutes.
For Biscuits - Combine 2 1/4 cups baking mix with 1/4 cup shortening and 2/3 cup water. Mix lightly until dough forms a ball. Turn onto a lightly floured surface. Knead 10 or 12 strokes. Roll dough about 1/2 inch thick. Cut with a 2 inch cutter or juice glass. Bake on an ungreased baking sheet at 450 for 10 to 12 minutes. For drop sheet biscuits, use 1 cup water and drop by tblsp. onto baking sheet.
For Muffins - Combine 2 1/4 cups baking mix with 1/4 cup of sugar. Combine 1 egg and 3/4 cup water, with 1/3 cup vegetable oil. Add to dry ingredients. You may also add raisins, nuts, cinnamon, chopped fruit (or even veggies such as carrots or squash) for variety. Mix only enough to moisten flour, even if the batter is lumpy. Use greased or nonstick muffin pans and fill two-thirds full. (OR fill the cup only half-way, add jelly, and top with more batter.) Bake at 400 for 45 minutes.
