Whole Grain Baking Mix

Submitted by Lise in Indiana

"Similar to Bisquick, but with whole-grain goodness. I have used this mix cup for cup for Bisquick recipes and it turns out pretty well. You can substitute whole wheat flour for ALL the flour, if you like, though your baked products may be a little denser."

A Great Multi Grain Mix!! I made peach cobbler with it first, so I added in some milk, eggs and sugar. The top was yummy enough to eat alone!
