I’m really liking having the mix available when I decide to make biscuits. It cuts down on my time for sure.

I have been wanting to do this for my biscuits and my pancakes because everyday is different amount of people to cook for because of different schedules, guests, etc and would like to figure out how to take previously prepared mixes, frozen and then have a ratio of liquids per cup of solid for the amount of people I am cooking for. I believe I will try your recipe and then figure the liquids per cup from there. Love your blogging and can’t wait to catch up on the rest of the reading. You do a lovely job and love the photos, etc.

Thanks, Diana. I’ll try this. My dad makes biscuits without a recipe, too, but not me. I’m a faithful follower of the recipe. lol

The gravy I use for breakfast is white. There is the darker gravy that is made from the juice of meat and is usually used just for dinners. I have a great white gravy recipe if you would like to try it.

Never heard of biscuits and gravy for breakfast…dinner yes…but hey, there is always a first around here.

Thanks for posting.

I use the same amount of fat that is called for in the recipe. The recipe I use calls for 1/3 cup of fat to 2 cups of all-purpose flour. So I use 1/3 cup oil. If I am using flax meal, and I usually do(2 heaping tablespoons), I use much less fat – less than half. I usually make a half recipe when I make biscuits and I don’t really measure. I just pour in what I think is a tablespoon or so right into the buttermilk. I give it a stir and dump it in. I hope this makes it a little more clear. My southern relatives never measured anything but I am not that good!

Thanks, Diana for this tip. So you use oil in lieu of the butter? How do you determine the amount to use?

My mom’s family is from the South and this is what they did every morning when they made breakfast biscuits and gravy, only they used vegetable oil. Works beautifully.

Anna,

You are going to make someone a wonderful wife someday. Have you started a recipe binder yet?
