Cut the cold unsalted butter into small cubes. Add the butter to the dry ingredients.
Using a pastry cutter, fork, or your fingertips, work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. Be careful not to overmix; small pieces of butter should still be visible.
Transfer the prepared baking mix to an airtight container or a large zip-top bag for storage. Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 month or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
Use this baking mix as a 1:1 substitute for store-bought Bisquick in recipes like pancakes, waffles, biscuits, or casseroles.
