A lot of us have used it and there have been a number of topics on it. You might want to use the Google button in the top right hand corner of your screen and do a search for Gluten-Free Bisquick.

It's a staple in our house.

I've used it a few times, just for biscuits or pancakes and it worked fine for what I wanted lol I'm not much of a baker/chef so idk if I'm the best to take advice from on cooking! LOL ?

I have tried gluten free Bisquik, but it just is not the same...I did not like it at all.

I probably need to be gluten free for a longer time and then try it again some time. Maybe if I wait a while it will taste better to me.... I was only gluten free for about 2 months when I tried the gluten free Bisquik.

Gluten free Bisquick and King Arthur are staples in our house, always have to have several packages on hand.

It really depends on what you expect from it. I love the stuff, but I don't expect perfect, flaky biscuits that will melt in my mouth either. I do love my impossible coconut pie though and keep almost talking myself into some baked chicken. I'm also quite happy with the pancakes from the back of the box although the waffles leave something to be desired.

I have made some really great cheesy-garlic biscuits from the back of the box. I was very pleased, as was my non-gluten-free family.

We love the pancakes it makes. As for the biscuits ---- well, they aren't like "biscuits" but more like some kind of bread/muffin type thing but they aren't bad as long as you're not expecting a real biscuit. I adapted a Belgian Waffle recipe using the gluten-free Bisquick & it's pretty darn good but the regular waffles from it ---- leave something to be desired.

Whaaaaaaatttt, there's gluten-free Bisquick???

:D It's a bit different, but it works. Think fried chicken! :D

My family loves it! I currently can't eat grains at all, but sure do miss waffles and pancakes made with gluten-free bisquick. If I'm remembering correctly the biscuits I made with it were really gritty - but the waffles - oh my - yummy!

Lisa Mentor

Add a little more crisco or butter to the mix and add LOTS of cheese and garlic salt, or herbs....less gritty. :)

I love it and use it all the time.

I actually like the waffles much better than the pancakes - but I used to make my own fluffy buttermilk pancakes from scratch and haven't found anything that comes close :(

And my family loves the "impossibly easy" pies.

GladGirl Rookie

I love it!! The Pancakes are superb! My hubby who is not gluten-free, but a diabetic has actually enjoyed the gluten-free products more than the old products. So, he said, go ahead, just make everything gluten-free and SF...we're good! LOL! He really likes the gravy I can make using this product as well for our beef roast, chicken, or pork roast! :)

I haven't used it for pancakes or biscuits...I use it to make sausage balls and spinach balls - just bought some today actually. The spinach ones are SO good!! I serve them at potlucks and no one ever knows they are gluten-free. You can find recipes on the Betty Crocker website

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.
