The Tastiest Muffins Made With Baking Mix(Free Recipes Included)

Baking mix is a product that contains all the essential stuff(baking powder, flour, salt, sugar, shortening, and dry milk) you use when baking cookies, muffins, pancakes, cupcakes, etc… It is an easy way to get all of the ingredients together without making a complete mess in your kitchen. Many people find the baking mix to be a little intimidating and do not know how to work with it. So, here is a little help for the perfect muffin recipe using a baking mix.

To make muffins with a baking mix you’ll need eggs, milk(or water if the mix already has dry milk in it), baking mix, and sugar if needed. 

I’ve prepared different recipes for muffins with baking mix(people usually use Bisquick), so if that’s something you’re interested in, keep on reading this article.

Baking Mix Muffins Recipe

Blueberry Muffin Recipe

Blueberry Muffin Recipe

Baking Ingredients:

  • 2 and a half cups of all-purpose baking mix
  • 1 egg
  • 1/3 cup sugar/brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cooking oil or 2 tablespoons of melted butter
  • half a cup frozen or fresh blueberries(you can use mixed berries as well)
  • 2/3 cup milk or water

Directions:

  • Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit
  • In a medium bowl, put the baking mix along with the sugar (as they are the dry ingredients), mix well and then add the rest of the ingredients except for the blueberries. When all of your ingredients are well mixed, gently add the blueberries and stir in. Be careful with any fruit as it can easily mash in.
  • Put muffin cups in muffin tins and generously spray the cups with baking spray or vegetable oil. If you do not have muffin cups, you can simply use a paper baking sheet.
  • Pour your muffin batter in the paper baking cups and try to not overfill them.
  • If you have any blueberries left, you can put some on the top of your uncooked muffins.
  • Bake for 15/20 minutes (or however long it says in the instructions on the box)
  • Take your muffins out of the oven and let them cool for at least 10 minutes before taking them off of the baking dish.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings
