How to Make Waffles with Pancake Mix
To learn how to make homemade waffles with Bisquick, just follow the simple steps below.
These are the basic steps for making waffles from pancake mix. Refer to the full, printable recipe card below for detailed instructions.
1. Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a medium or large bowl, combine the Bisquick, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Make a well in the center and set aside.
2. Combine Wet Ingredients
In another bowl, combine the eggs, almond milk, coconut oil, vanilla, and mashed blackberries, if using. Add egg mixture all at once to flour mixture and stir just until moistened but the batter will still be lumpy.
3. Make the Waffles
Pour 1 cup of batter onto preheated and greased waffle maker. Add 4-6 blackberries per waffle if using whole. Cook according to waffle maker’s directions, then carefully remove the waffles once golden brown and let rest for a few minutes to cool.
Waffles With Homemade Bisquick FAQs
Store leftover waffles in an airtight container in a single layer in the refrigerator or wrap them in foil or plastic wrap. You can also make a batch in advance to have them the next day.
Yes, you can freeze the waffles for up to 3 months. However, it’s a good idea to separate them with a piece of parchment paper so they don’t get stuck together in the freezer. Reheat waffles in the microwave, toaster, or toaster oven.
Top the waffles with whipped cream, syrup, more fruit, powdered sugar, cinnamon spice, chocolate chips, or any other of your favorite toppings.
Expert Tips for Making Waffles with Bisquick
- Temperature: Ensure all your wet ingredients are at room temperature. This promotes even mixing and a fluffier waffle.
- Don’t Overmix: Overmixing leads to tough waffles. Mix until just combined, a few lumps are okay!
- Buttermilk: Substitute buttermilk for milk. The acidity in buttermilk tenderizes the gluten and adds a subtle tang.
- Seltzer Surprise: Swap some of the milk for club soda or seltzer water for a lighter and crispier waffle.

I love the recipe, but I am reluctant to make it with almond milk because of nut allergies. Can I make it with ordinary milk. I am going to use regular milk and see what happens. FYI I’m not the one allergic to nuts but I have family who is and I’ll avoid ALL nuts ALL the time.
Yes, you can use regular milk. Enjoy 🙂
