Hi resi,ey, mate
bisquick is a combination,of flour shortening salt baking powder and other ingredients, you can make your own bisquick very easily, here's the recipe,

Homemade bisquick

9 cups flour
1/4 cup sugar
2 1/3 cups powdered milk
1 tablespoon salt
1/3 cup baking powder
2 cups shortening


In a large pan, stir the dry milk, baking powder, sugar and salt into the flour; mix thoroughly.
Cut the shortening into the dry ingredients until the MIX is the consistency of corn meal.
Place the mix in a covered glass or plastic container and keep in a cool, dry place.
In warm weather the MIX should be refrigerated.
Use within a month.
To measure, pile the MIX lightly into a cup and level off with a spatula or the back of a knife.

this makes a large batch so they say cup for cup.of bisquick replacement to the real bisquick.
happy baking
