Forget the Bisquick
Why would you buy something when you can make it cheaper with very little trouble? Here's a self rising crust that's great for cobblers. For meat pies, just omit the sugar!
1 cup flour
1/2 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 TB oil
Enough milk to make a thick but pourable batter.
Mix it all up and dump it in a baking dish, put the fruit in on top (two cans worth) and bake about an hour at around 400 degrees.

Thank you for this easy little recipe.
LOVE IT!
Can't wait to try it out!
You're welcome! Let me know how it turns out for you.
Older cookbooks have recipes for biscuit mix--has everything except the liquid ingredients. It makes a large quantity and you store it in the fridge for quite a while. Usually there are recipes for using it. Makes great pancakes and muffins.

Bisquick doesn't make good biscuits, in my opinion, so I make them from scratch. Pancakes and muffins aren't hard to make, either. A homemade mix might hurry things up a bit, though and it's definitely cheaper than a commercial mix.
I just found your blog on StumbleIt and I am so glad that I did. Your tips are truly useful and I appreciate the brevity of each one. Please keep posting!
Thank you, Dallan. I intend to keep on posting although life gets in the way at times and I don't get as much on here as I want to!
