Bisquick® Biscuits! Who doesn’t love the comforting warmth of a freshly baked biscuit? Even better, why not have the ease and dependability of a pre-packaged box like Bisquick?

Despite what some tell you, there is no shame in using the packaged stuff – it’s been specially designed and crafted to be the best ratio of ingredients possible, so you know you will end up with amazing biscuits every time. Just like Bisquick dumplings and that classic appetizer, sausage balls, it makes cooking so much easier!

The Basic Bisquick Biscuits Recipe

I can’t count the number of times I’ve been emailed by people thanking me for these essential Bisquick recipes because:

They threw out the Bisquick box

And finally, the last reason:

They threw out the Bisquick box

We all do it; it’s just too convenient. When going camping, why would you store your Bisquick mix in a box in a camper when you can seal it in a plastic Ziploc bag so no moisture can get in? Well, despite being a lot less bulky to take with you, that bag has NO instructions, and you threw the box out that has the written directions on it, so you quickly find yourself out of luck.

That’s why I keep posting as many of these recipes as possible – even though it’s right there on the box, you will still find yourself needing it again and again.

I’ve also totally been emailed by people who were camping and needed the recipe for my Bisquick pancakes!

Ingredients For Bisquick® Biscuits

The best part about making Bisquick Biscuits is that you only need two ingredients – that makes them so quick and easy to make!

Bisquick Mix
Milk

While the ingredients are always the same, what you do with them is going to depend on whether you want dropped biscuits or rolled biscuits.

How To Make Bisquick® Drop Biscuits

Drop biscuits are definitely the easiest way to make good, old-fashioned biscuits from your Bisquick box.

In a bowl big enough to hold it, stir together all the ingredients until thoroughly mixed. You’ll have a soft, slightly sticky dough.
Take a big spoon and scoop some of the biscuit dough onto a baking sheet, spacing them out to make about eight total.
Bake in the oven until they are beautifully golden brown on both the bottom and the top.

Make sure you eat these as warm as you can!

How To Make Rolled Bisquick® Biscuits

A rolled biscuit is a bit more delicate and allows you to make it into prettier shapes than the classic dropped biscuits.

First, mix all of your ingredients together until a soft dough forms, just as before.
turn out your dough onto a floured, dry work surface and start kneading! Knead it about ten times, folding it over itself again and again to get those thin layers.
Roll out your dough until it’s ½ inches thick, and then cut it into eight circles or any shape you want.
Bake those circles on a baking sheet until golden brown on both sides and eat warm!

Tips & Tricks For Bisquick® Biscuits

When working with Bisquick dough, as with any dough, adding more flour or water to adjust the dough is always tempting – maybe it feels too sticky or dry. But whatever you do, don’t do it! Other than a little dusting of flour to help the rolling process, stick to the recipe as listed. The Bisquick people are pretty smart – they’ve designed the base recipe perfectly, so try not to meddle with it!

If you can’t finish your biscuits, keep them sealed up in a closed container, and they will stay for about 3-4 days. However, make sure you don’t put them in the fridge, or they will turn as hard as rocks!
