I have made this mix with all unbleached white flour and half white flour/half fresh ground white wheat. There is a noticeable difference in the texture of the two mixes. The whole wheat version produces a more robust biscuit and did not rise as well as the unbleached flour. Of course, once you use it to make biscuits and smear butter and jelly on it, it really doesn't matter which version you make!

I've used this baking mix recipe many times in my cornbread recipe. I usually change the proportions to fit what I need and haven't had any problems at all. This is much less expensive than purchasing a biscuit mix. I don't add the yeast.

A great mix to have on hand! I madet his with half whole wheat flour and half white flour. I left out the yeast. I tried the muffins and the biscuits so far and I look forward to trying the coffee cake soon! Thanks!

I used this to make biscuits and it was wonderful. I cut the servings down to 1 1/2 cups (just enough to make 12 buscuits). I will be preparing the full amount soon! I didn't add any spices or anything as I felt they didn't need it! The mix comes together so easily! Thanks for posting! I
