Good afternoon FoodLovers,

Can you please let me know if you can get Bisquick in New Zealand and if so where?

Kindest regards,
*Kathie*

Several weeks ago I was watching Laurel Watson on The Good Morning Show making something that had Bisquick in the recipe and she suggested a NZ alternative. I could be wrong, but I thought she said it was Baking Mix. Maybe someone else could confirm that. Now here's the rub, I am not even sure whether that is still available. But I did find a recipe for the same baking mix that had been published in the NZ Women's Weekly about 20 years ago!! I have taken a note of it and if you need it then I can send it to you.

THankyou Marnie, I would love your substutute recipe for Bisquick please?

I often came across recipes that called for Bisquick and found this one about 15-20 years ago that works brilliantly and is just the same as Biquick.

5 Tbs skim milk powder
4 Tbs Baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
150g grated butter
Sift flour, baking powder and salt 3 times. Rub in grated butter until it resembles fine breadcrumbs Store in a tin with a tight fitting lid in the fridge. makes 12 cups of mix.

Also used Alison Holsts baking mix with success as well.

Great way to use up tomatoes (and darn handy)

Eat well, live well, dress well.

According to the back of the bisquick pack: 20% = fat plus 80% = leavened flour
..
1 cup "Bisquick" Substitute = 4 oz or 120g self raising flour plus 1 oz or 30g shortening/butter.
