The first time we had to answer the question can we make biscuits with pancake mix was back in February 2013 and the snow was deep! We were snowed in for 3 days after the Blizzard of 2013 dumped upwards of 3 feet of snow across Long Island. To say we weren’t ready for it is an understatement. With the plows not moving and no relief in sight we set out to see if you could make biscuits with pancake mix.
Make Biscuits with Pancake Mix
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 Cups of your favorite Pancake Mix
- 1/3 Cup of water
- 1/4 Cup of Melted Butter
- 1 Egg
Directions
- Pre-Heat the oven to 400 degrees
- Mix all of the ingredients until they form a soft dough
- Pull the dough out on to a lightly floured surface and knead gently.
- Using a rolling pin, roll the dough out until it is a 1/2 inch thick
- With a Biscuit Cutter
cut out the biscuits.
- Place the cut out dough onto a baking sheet. I like to use parchment paper to save on clean up afterwards.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
- We like them with butter and honey!
These turned out pretty well and if stuck in a pinch again I would make them. They were a bit different than the regular Bisquick drop biscuits that we make, but it is good to know that we can make biscuits with pancake mix. We always have a big box of pancake mix in the pantry, hopefully we won’t have 3 feet of snow to contend with anytime soon! Check out 101 Things to do With Pancake Mix

I have used Pioneer baking mix to make biscuits but never pancake mix. Don’t know if the ingredients are that different since you can use the baking mix to make pancakes too.
do you have a rescip using flour and bake soda or powder and ect.. what if you don’t have a biscuit mix.
I use 2 cups of flour 1/4 cup of butter 4 teasp of baking powder 1 tablesppon salt 2 tablespoons sugar 2/3 cup of milk 1 egg…. cut butter in flour mix remaining dry ingredients thn wet until moist kneed 8x thn pop in the oven on 400 8-12 mins…. might be a tad off on the measurements as I do it by sight …. hope they turn out well!!!!
Thanks for sharing!
I made them today for my kids and they loved them 🙂
I made them today for breakfast and they were amazing! The dough was surprisingly really easy to work with since I’m terrible at working with dough. I served them with scrambled eggs and OJ. Definitely making next time, some herbs and meat added would be delicious. Thanks!
Glad you liked them!

My husband who is a southern boy wanted buttermilk biscuits this morning. Unfortunately I did not have some of the ingredients to make them from scratch so I tried your shortcut buttermilk biscuits recipe with pancake mix. I brushed the tops with melted butter, they turned a golden brown and were delicious! Thanks!!
What if you only have all purpose flour baking soda
