‘From Scratch’ Biscuit Mix
Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 Tbsp dry milk
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1⁄4 tsp kosher salt
- 2 Tbsp or 2 packets vegetable oil
- 1⁄2 cup water
Instructions:
In a quart freezer bag pack the dry ingredients, stirring well then sealing tightly. Tuck the oil in with it.
Mix in the cool water, in the bag or in a small bowl, till well blended. Heat a nonstick frying pan lid or shallow/wide pot over a medium flame. Add in half the oil and heat up.
Carefully add in the dough and pat out, using the empty bag or your spatula. Let bake for 5 minutes, lowering the flame as needed.
Drizzle on the second half of the oil and flip over. Bake another 5 minutes or until golden brown.
The large biscuit will be super puffy and moist inside. Split in half and top with whatever you crave.
Notes:
Weight is 6 ounces dry.
For the oil, pack in a leak proof bottle or carry 2 packets.
Consider this a base mix for anything you can dream up.
Pizza? Split the recipe in half when it comes to baking. After flipping, top the baked side with sauce and cheese, it will melt as the back side cooks – top with a lid if you have one to speed up the melting.
Sweet? Add in sugar or honey, nuts, berries, fruit – chocolate chips….you get the idea!
Also works well as small biscuits dropped in oil and fried up.
