I love convenience as much as any mom, but at the same time I'm not willing to compromise my desire to feed my children wholesome meals in order to save a few minutes here and there.
This is why I'm always looking for easy alternatives to convenience foods, such as my homemade microwave popcorn and the homemade Bisquick mix I shared yesterday. It puts me in control of exactly what ingredients go into a recipe, as well as the quality of those ingredients, all while putting more money in my pocket. You definitely pay a premium for convenience foods in most cases!
These homemade biscuits are the perfect side for any meal. You can have them on the table in just 15 minutes start to finish if you already have your mix on hand!
15-Minute Homemade Bisquick Rolled Biscuits
Ingredients
- 2 ¼ cup homemade Bisquick mix
- ⅔ cup milk
Instructions
- Mix together homemade Bisquick mix and milk to form a soft dough.
- Roll the dough out to about ½" thickness on a flour-dusted surface. Cut out biscuits with a 2.5" cutter. We repurpose an empty Campbell's soup can with both ends cut out for this.
- Bake at 450 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes or until golden brown.

If you have a few extra minutes to spare, you might also try your hand at making some homemade butter as a special treat.

Do you grease the baking pan first?
Spray oil, like, Pam spray, or butter?
Thanks.

Ok I am giving up the making biscuits thing! Seriously not sure what I did wrong but I have never been able to make biscuits an this was no exception :-(
Tara @ Unsophisticook says
What did you have trouble with, Tiffany? I think one of the most common mistakes is over mixing -- you just want to stir the milk and mix enough to be able to roll the dough out.

I used 1-1/2 cups of smoked Tillamook Cheddar cheese and after baking 10 minates basted with a melted herb butter then baked 5 more minutes at 400 degrees. Mmmm

Tara @ Unsophisticook says
So glad to hear they were a hit, Angela!
Becky Thomas says
I'll be waiting for that!

Have you ever made these with buttermilk? I have some so I was thinking about trying it.
Tara @ Unsophisticook says
You know, I haven't tried it, but I also have some on hand right now, so I think I will!
Becky Thomas says
I did too! Very good! I used 1 cup of buttermilk. I have a new biscuit recipe! I'm also thinking about those garlic cheese drop biscuits that you get at a certain restaurant. What do you think?
Tara @ Unsophisticook says
Oh, yes -- I've been meaning to post my recipe for those. Sooooo yummy!
Jennifer says
Tara. I wanted to let you know the pop-ups have stopped.. For know at least! I havent seen any the last 2 times I've been on here.
Also, How much Buttermilk? Is it the same amount as the regular milk above? Thank you :)
Jennifer says
For NOW. I'm not stupid. Auto spell check is sometimes though!
Tara @ Unsophisticook says
LOL, thanks for letting me know! Start with 2/3 cup, but you may need up to 1 cup. Just add more about a tablespoon at a time until they seem to be the right consistency.
