Betty's Multi-Purpose Baking Mix

Betty demonstrates how to make a Multi-Purpose Baking Mix. This is a standard mixture of flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and butter that allows you to quickly make biscuits, waffles, cakes, cupcakes, and many other recipes . . . without the trouble of measuring each ingredient individually. (Note: some of the ingredient measurements are unusual, because I took a larger recipe and cut it down.) Multi-Purpose Baking Mix 5 cups all-purpose flour 1/6 cup baking powder ¾ tablespoon salt 1/8 cup sugar 1 cup butter Combine 5 cups all-purpose flour, 1/6 cup baking powder, ¾ tablespoon salt, and 1/8 cup sugar in a large mixing bowl. Stir until thoroughly mixed. Use a pastry blender to cut in 1 cup of butter, until the consistency of the mixture is like coarse cornmeal. Store in an airtight container at room temperature. This mixture keeps well up to 6 weeks. A simple rule of thumb for using this mixture is to use slightly more of the baking mixture as the amount of flour in your recipe. I will be demonstrating a couple of recipes using this baking mixture before long. I hope you enjoy this time-saver! --Betty :) Please subscribe: http://www.youtube.com/bettyskitchen ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ NEW Cookbook:  "Betty's Kitchen Cookbook:  2013 Recipes" (c) 2014 Also available:  "The Betty's Kitchen Collection:  Second Edition" (c) 2013 *Both can be ordered from http://www.amazon.com or http://www.createspace.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Betty's Website:  http://www.bettyskitchen.us ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Other places to watch Betty's Kitchen: Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/pages/bettyskitchen/166973502092 Pinterest:  http://www.pinterest.com/bettyskitchen/bettyskitchen/ Twitter:  https://twitter.com/Myshine Google+:  https://plus.google.com/108882445101872897307/posts ifood.tv:  http://www.ifood.tv/bettyskitchen Roku:  http://www.rokuguide.com/channels/betty%27s-kitchen​
