Substitutions

This should work with any type of Bisquick type mix, but was developed to be made with Kathy P’s All Purpose Baking Mix [1].

Use corn-free preserves, brown sugar, and margarine if needed. Use soy and/or dairy free margarine if needed.

Butter and Margarine: Butter is a dairy product made from cow’s milk. Margarine typically contains milk or soy, but there are milk-free and soy-free versions available.
Gluten: Gluten is a protein found in specific grains (wheat, spelt, kamut, barley, rye). Other grains are naturally gluten-free but may have cross-contact with gluten-containing grains. Look for certified gluten-free products if you need to avoid gluten. Find out more about wheat and gluten substitutions [2].
