I've been cooking and experimenting with Carbquik for a few years now. I tried adding eggs, other things to keep it from being crumbly. The solution is to add a little Xanthan Gum. Just that simple. For a few biscuits, a 1/4-1/3 tsp of Xanthan gum is plenty. Add a dash of salt. Mix it well. Cut in some cold butter. Then a little milk, and you have biscuits. I've also make a pretty decent banana nut bread with the Xantham Gum, about 1/2 tsp, really holding it together well. Sometimes Carbquik can have an odd taste. I have found that it is related to cooking temp. Don't cook higher than 370*F. Just cook it longer.
Just made awesome "Sausage Balls" using CarbQuik and I'm sold. I used 2 cups CQ; 1 lb uncooked breakfast sausage; 3 cups grated cheddar; 1 cup grated mozzarella cheese; 2 eggs; 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream; 2 tbs Italian seasoning; 1 tbs garlic. Roll into balls on parchment & bake 350 20-30 min till a crispy golden brown (time depends on ball size) served with mayo/mustard sauce on the side. Big hit at my place. Filling too. Warms up in micro and won't loose it's crunch.
I follow several Keto/Low carb channels and your by far is my favorite! I love your honesty! Thank you for testing these low carb options. I bought Carb quick, made the biscuits, rolled my eyes at them and then promptly chucked the box in the trash. Being from the south, I just could not deal with that being the be all of biscuits for the rest of my life. I wish I had your video before I did so. I actually prefer Kristi's biscuits from cooking Keto with Kristi. We need to pitch your show to Food Network or The Cooking Channel!
+Stephanie Pratt You are too kind! Yes, Kristie's Miracle Biscuits were the definite winner of my Biscuit Battle! Thanks so much for watching and commenting, Stephanie! ❤️❤️🙏🙏
I bought a box of Carbquick and was sorely disappointed too! One recipe down the garbage disposal and the box of crap in the freezer, where it still lives.
I like the carbquik biscuits. The main reason that I like them is that they just are a butter delivery vehicle. If you do Half Biscuit and half butter they're really pretty good. Really love your vids.
I bought carb quick! I love it! I have made pie crust for my low carb cheesecake. I like my waffles better with this. I used it to coat my zucchini fries. Half crushed pork rinds. Whole family loved them.
I've used this for years, and I think it's an acceptable substitute for a lot of things. "Sandy" is a good description of it sometimes. I've used it as a coating for fried chicken and shrimp (not quite as crispy as flour), made sausage gravy, used it as a binder for salmon patties and meatloaf, made an okay pizza crust, a pretty good cornbread, and the cheddar cheese biscuits are better than the regular biscuit recipe. It makes a decent alternative for a lot of things.
Chris Ross thanks! Just ordered it and the Carbalose Flour (which is dairy free for kosher purposes). I’m expecting to have to tweak the recipes until I like them.
Years back when the Atkins diet was the rage, I tried Carbquick. I never quite liked it. But recently I saw a chicken and dumpling recipe by PaPa G and it looked great. There was gravy in it. I like gravy. Then your video came up, and watching you gave me a number of ideas on how to use this product. This recipe is just the basics. Add some other seasonings to it and some more butter. Since I'm not gluten free, even though being on a low carb diet eliminates flour, I'm not one that would care if occasionally I eat a little gluten. I've been eating lowcarb since this summer. I recently had blood work done because I am a diabetic. My A1c is now at 6. That's down from 7.8. Before that it was way up there. That's why I was prescribed Metformin. My doctor discontinue my meds to control my sugar...warning me not to deviate from my diet. My cholesterol is normal now, down from 220. My blood pressure is way down. I've never followed keto or paleo rules. I just kept the carbs down. To tell you the truth I don't know how many carbs a day I consume. I just eat protein, lowcarb vegetables, salads, low carb tortillas and lowcarb breads that I make. I do consume Atkins products...shakes, their bar treats and some of their candy. This makes it easier for me to stick with the lifestyle. I use crushed pork skins mixed with almond flour and butter to make crisp toppings...stuff like that. Weight loss is slow but ongoing. So, this is just my opinion, but I think all those rules make this lifestyle a little difficult and too rigid. I welcome recipes that teach us to consider limited carb consumtion as the real mechanism to this lifestyle. Carbquick isn't going to kill you if you aren't gluten intolerant. So why not use it without the guilt some feel simply because someone deemed this products outside of the keto or paleo rules. Anyway...it's just my opinion.
The blueberry muffins are really good! I used to make them weekly until I ran out of Carbquick. Going to give this one a try since I save most of my daily net carb count for dinner! Thanks for making and sharing this video. Making some pot pie this afternoon!!
I found the Carbquik biscuits a bit dry as well. When I used it in my Low Carb Chicken & Dumplings recipe it turned out great. I think it was because it was cooked submerged in liquid. Great video (as always). Keep 'em coming!
@@PapaGCooking I've often thought both of you should have their own Saturday low-carb TV cooking show. You for your voice and inflection and Highfalutin for his open spontaneity.
I love Carbquik pancakes! The garlic cheesy biscuits are great too! I've used Carbquik for years! There are tricks - moisture is an issue. Sometimes more water or heavy cream is needed. Pancake batter is thick!! like Hungry Jack. Don't overwork it - because of the protein it will toughen up! Oh there are recipes on the inside of the box just like Bisquik. More recipes are on their website too. Carbquik has been used in hospitals, nursing homes etc for years. They get it in 25-50lb drums. I also use it in breading with crushed pork rinds. I wish I could upload pics of things I've made with Carbquik. I use Torani Sugar Free Pancake syrup with pancakes. I make a sausage gravy over Carbquik biscuits.
Thank you for your channel! I love it! I have tried Carbquick, and do like the biscuit recipe that you roll out. What I absolutely LOVE is their recipe for cinnamon rolls. I was shocked at the wonderful flavor. I individually wrapped and froze the extras so I wouldn't be tempted to eat them all at once. I used Sukrin Gold as the sweetener in the filling; absolutely amazing. I highly recommend trying the cinnamon rolls.
I am keto and use this occasionally. With the drop biscuits make sure you baste with a garlic butter sauce. Be generous. Before cooking and after. I think this casserole is fine for keto. If you only get 4 servings and that's your meal. I'll be making it! Thanks for sharing.
2 weeks in a row! Yes! Now I did see someone on TH-cam make a chicken pot pie using the fat head dough and it really looked like a pot pie. Thanks for your videos 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
One thing I noticed is that if you eat the muffin or biscuit soon after COMMING out of the oven, it DOES seem crumbly. However if you eat the muffins the next day or several hours later, it "stabilizes quite well.
Just took mine out of the oven! It looks delicious! Doubled the recipe. Dont know how it will turn out!! Can't wait to eat it. Thank you so much for helping an older person learn about Carb Quik. I've been dying to eat a biscuit!! And this pot pie. Thank you. Thank you!!❤
I made the cheddar biscuits and used more cheese (I'm cheesy) and also made a garlic herb butter to coat it with after baking...I loved them, very close to Red Lobster biscuits. My only concern is what effects it has on blood ketones, do not have a meter to check.
I enjoy watching your videos. Their are a lot of different recipes out there for Keto for each and every type of dish you can come up with, and you take the different recipes and compare them or let them do battle. I know isn't easy for you to do and still maintain your own meal plan. I am also southern and I too grew up in a small Georgia town and I love southern dishes. Watching you is like watching a friend explain the recipe. I can tell this come from your heart and it is appreciated. Thank you and for the videos and stay strong!
I love Carbquick. I made a pork butt and low carb veggies one night for family visiting from out of state and felt like I should really be serving some bread for dinner. I used the mix to make garlic/cheddar biscuits and EVERYONE loved them. They had no idea they were lower carb.
great video! Carbquick has it's pros and cons, but overall it's a pretty decent product- I love using it around Christmas and the holidays to make sausage balls, and honestly, you'd never know the difference if you didn't have the box right in front of you- keep up the great work!
The Sugar Free Diva has a recipe, Low Carb Copycat Red Lobster Biscuits. They use Carbquik. They are very good. That's my main use for CQ. But, yeah, the plain biscuits are not delicious.
Love your videos! I have binge watched them all over the past few days! And you are cute as a button! Thanks for putting in such effort - much appreciated!
I appreciate your time and effort that put in these videos. Thank you so much for sharing all of these alternatives. I'm trying strict keto but sometimes it seems like I eat the same thing over and over.
I made a sugarless biscotti with it. So basically sugarless and almost carbless. It came out softer then flour. Tastes a little like cornbread. But very good.
I just found your channel a few days ago and have BINGED all your videos lol! You are very inspiring and quite helpful, and for that I want to THANK YOU! I've lived low carb off and on for many many years (I know you can relate darlin'!) Everytime I return to a more keto lifestyle, I get more and more intimidated. If I follow too many folks, I get too many inputs and am basically told if I can't or won't buy top of the line then I can't do it. Sorry, single mom here and my budget is TIGHTER than my old jeans! What I like about you, is you are open minded, you are realistic, and you are so relate able. I'm still scared to eat veggies and such because I've been brain washed to ONLY EAT HIGH FAT items and with my macros hitting 112g fat 45g protein and 17g fat … I can't afford a serving of veggies unless they are tucked in a stick of butter lol! But, watching you go through your REAL LIFE journey is helping me realize that food shouldn't be scary. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU
Mrs. H.H.: My version is more of a casserole than a pie. It’s melted butter, chicken broth, heavy whipping cream, cheese, steamed broccoli, (and/or cauliflower) and cooked cut up chicken and black pepper. The topping is a mixture of mashed pork skins and a few French Fried Onions. I cook at 350 for about 25-30 minutes. It’s delicious!
I found the same recipe on Carbquik website and it said 6 servings, not 10. So even if you make it four, that's only about 4g carbs per serving. I have not yet tried this recipe, but I used the onion cheesebread recipe as an accompaniment to chili (rather than cornbread), and my husband loved it! Said I could make it anytime. When I make the pot pie, I will definitely use more herbs and spices.
lol... "unless your feeding infants".... thank you!!!! I cant stop laughing... I love carbquick... try the breading (double the salt and pepper).... its KFC.... Thanks your the man!!!!
As always, thanks for the great video! I really do not care about being keto strict as long as it doesn't make my blood sugar jump. I use CarbQuick to make a dark roux when I make crawfish etouffee and it comes out great! CarbQuick may work better when mixing it with numerous other ingredients. Nobody enjoys listening to "Dueling Tuba's", but a tuba is a great part of a full orchestra! So it may help when you can add other ingredients that give it a different taste or texture like adding allulose, gluten, cheese, garlic, yeast, Italian seasoning, etc.
All the way from Ireland, I thank my lucky stars I came across you, you have helped me to get to grips with low carb and took all the confusion out of it, I also enjoy your laid back and entertaining personality. xx
I am so glad I found your channel! I am from the south as well and watching you is like hanging in the kitchen with my brother! You do your research and are honest about what you try. I love the comparison videos too. I am a fan!
Katherine Nelson Aww, thanks Katherine! That's such a heartwarming comment. I appreciate you watching and letting me know your feelings. Stay tuned - much more to come! ❤️❤️🙏🙏
Let me tell you, this southern girl has found the perfect biscuit with Carbquik! It's just a 2 to 1 ratio of Carbquik to heavy whipping cream. Stir it, roll it out with a little extra Carbquik and then cut your biscuits. I bake mine in a buttered cast iron skillet at 425F until golden brown. Light, fluffy and delicious! Just try it! Only 2 ingredients!
its a good idea to see how it affects your blood sugar, could be used as a "cheat day producti" when trying to make pizza or pancakes, less strict days, keep up the good work
I bought carbquik when my DH was put on a nearly 0 carb diet by his doctor. The drop biscuits are nasty. If you go to the webside they suggest rolled/cutout biscuits. We love them. You use 2 cups of the Carbquik, 1/2 cup heavy cream, 1/8 c. water. Mix them in a mixer until crumbly. Dump the mess out onto a cutting board and knead it until it forms dough. Pat it out and either cut it into 6 biscuits or use a biscuit cutter. Bake 20 minutes in a 350 degree oven. Yum.
I used Carbquik and make homemade biscuits "my way" with added cream and butter. Greased a black iron skillet and got it hot, formed balls and put the biscuits into the frying pan. I cooked them like regular biscuits (I think I put them under a broiled for about a minute or two to brown them). They were pretty good!
I forgot... you can make a great sausage gravy for breakfast with this though! I thought it was as good as regular flour. But I have tried it with other recipes and not a fan.
Never used it and probably won’t use it. I am on a really low carb diet... like 20-25 carbs a day. .. never used bisquick either. We always made homemade biscuits. But anyway I love how honest you are... love watching your channel
I follow a few different keto and health channels. I really enjoy your humor and you're one of the more engaging personalities doing this type of channel. I also love the multi recipe face-offs you do, not many people do many of those. So, thanks for risking your health for my benefit!
I looked at the directions, and decided to improvise. I never could get an exact recipe from my mom cause she just threw stuff together.... I made biscuits for the first time today from carbquik. I didnt even measure. I put a medium sized bowl of carbquik poured milk and put an egg in it. Mixed it to a stiff batter. Put dry carbquik on the counter to keep it from sticking and turned the mixture out on it and kneaded it. I dont do drop biscuits. I patted it out and cut big biscuits out of it. They took longer than 10 minutes.... maybe even 20 or 30 on 350 and put some butter on them and they were good. I didnt like them as much as traditional southern biscuits.... which my mom taught me how to make but they were good. Also you can make your biscuits any size you want just keep an eye on them in the oven. When they are a little firm to the touch and a little brown on top they are done.
Thank you for doing this. I recently purchased a box. Last night we had taco pie with it. The recipe was not from the website or box. I found it on the Internet. We liked it. I added a 1/2 cup of the Carbquik to recipe and glad I did. Seemed too runny. So, 1 cup liquid to 1 cup Carbquik for the Bisquik copy cat of impossible pies. What you made looks better. Also, a YT channel playing with Carbquik says let it rest for about 1/2 hour when making things like biscuits. The "dough" becomes more like consistency of traditional biscuits. I'm using it for those times when I would otherwise cheat with something silly like refrigerator biscuits my husband and grandkids like. Breading is something I use with eggplant and zucchini so I'll try it there with addition of grated parm. I do a couple pulses in food processor of chaffles when I've made extra and use as breading also with the addition of grated parm. I look at Carbquik as being comfort food. I definitely won't part from my regular keto foods I've lived with for years.
I made the carbquick pancake recipe this morning and like you said the serving size is ridulous. Recipe said ten servings of two pancakes each but only made ten 4-5" thin pancakes. They browned exactly like regular pancakes but were very light and very fragile. Taste was acceptable but very light compared to a denser regular pancake. I'm type 2 diabetic so was concerned about my blood sugar levels so I tested two hours after eating and my glucose was 85. Right where it should be.
steelhorses2004 Good to know about the blood sugar. And I can only assume there are some very small people working at Carbquick and they get full very fast! 😜 Thanks for commenting and letting us know about your experience with Carbquick!
the thing with carbquick is it is a great option versus the alternative high carb options. other thing is the textures are great but need to add flavor, like salt or garlic powder
Hi ! I also tried Carbquik but made biscuits. I added a little xanthan gum & tsp of ground flax seed to make it less crumbly- my 1st attempt way too crumbly! Your recipes are amazing ! Thanks for sharing ! :)
Thing I noticed about Carbquik is that when it is fresh out of the oven it is tolerable(still has nasty aftertaste) but when it cools down you might as well throw it away. I use it mainly for its breading recipe which is actually pretty good.
If you mill the carb quick in the food processor for 5 minutes prior to mixing in all other ingredients, you’ll find the biscuit dough is easier to work with and it would be less griddy 🙂
I just got Carbquik and the first thing I made was the Bisquick classic coffee cake recipe but changed The ingredients to Swerve, Surkin Gold and added to the dough 1 tsp of LorAnn Buttery Sweet Dough emulsion. That last addition made all the difference. It was delicious and froze well. I’m doing low carb not strict keto. It’s great to get ideas from creative cooks so please play with Carbquik and share. I ordered a whole bunch of flavor extracts from Amazon to create too.
I made sausage balls with carbquik and they turned out very yummy! I'm so glad I found your channel because you give your honest opinion....Thanks for sharing!
I took your note about dry and crumbly and did the drop biscuits. I added an egg to 2/3 cup of carb quick (I just wanted a few biscuits. Added almond milk. Worked great! I need to work on what gives the best rise ( do I need a little more baking powder, a little more flour, I’ll try yeast at some point). Great for when I want an egg and cheese biscuit. Gravy is next.
It's not something we use often, but really it's the best we've found for pancakes to actually taste like pancakes. The pre-packaged almond flour based pancake mix(the name escapes me right now) tastes fine, but the texture isn't there. IMO it needs a little more leavener, and definitely needs some vanilla or cinnamon, or something. For biscuits tho, we found a recipe that uses a mix of almond and coconut flour to replicate Red Lobster's biscuits that we can't tell the difference. [EDIT]: Also, that restaurant size is the only size we can find in our area, and we can ONLY find it at Wally World. Nobody else carries it, and the price to order online is inflated to account for shipping.
This channel is in my top 4 go-to for low carb/keto (it’s my favorite for honest reviews). I am thrilled that you made a chicken pot pie, it’s a yummy comfort food that we like to enjoy once in a while. I can’t wait to try all the recipes! 😋😀
Hey Wes, I just recently found your TH-cam channel and am now an avid fan. I love your chatty down home manner and honesty. I appreciate all the time and effort you put in. Now I would like to see your own potpie recipe. I think your chicken divan sauce would be a great starter with a topping like 'Almond flour cheddar biscuits' by 'Uplateanyway (they are very light, fluffy & flavorful). Keep up the good work. You are much appreciated!
I love Carbquik! the cheddar bay biscuits are amazing! I make grilled chicken, cheddar cheese, Cotija cheese, jalapeno tomatillo salsa pot pie, top it with sour cream or crema and cilantro , absolutely d'lish!
Make the biscuits using one part carbquik to half a part heavy whipping cream. Carbquik is wonderful if you watch a lot of the tweaks and pay attention to others alterations
I made the pot pie and loved it! I I only made half the recipe and used a small casserole dish since I'm the only one on the low carb lifestyle. I also made the falute SP? with the carbquik and chicken broth. I used only the yolk and not the entire egg. I made it again with chili...no beans.
I've developed a Carbquick, home made, bread recipe. I'm working on the carb count. It's little chewy (but so is store bought lo carb bread) But is better than no bread at all.
I make blueberry quick bread and bun toppers for burgers that are both great! Pancakes are awesome and so are waffles. I make quiche with this as the bottom ...I love it
I am doing keto for weight loss, altho I am loving the mental clarity and mood stability, so I dont mind the wheat part. I have found that vital wheat gluten is really useful to *crispy stuff up* when frying. Not much is needed - just a dusting but it def makes it (ie. wings) tastier. Am going to experiment with a keto bread product today and see what I get. Hardest part will be figuring Macros which I have not done before. Also i commented below about this but we are collectively serious that you could take this to a network. Absolute natural in front of your camera
Banjojo You're making me blush! LOL. But seriously, I really appreciate the kind words. I need to experiment with using the vital wheat gluten for frying. I want something light and crispy for seafood like fried oysters, calamari or shrimp. Thanks for the info! ❤️❤️🙏🙏
Highfalutin' Low Carb - do you regularly use your glucometer? Your vid on the sweeteners was really interesting and I would love to get a tester but at $90 am not sure its a worthwhile tool - thoughts (anyone)? I am curious if my sugars go up after dry white wine or vodka with seltzer in particular
+Banjojo I don't use it regularly, mostly when I try a new product or if I'm suspicious of something. I know other folks have recommended a glucose meter called ReliOn, sold at WalMart. It's like $15, and the strips are more affordable as well. Might want to check into that one.
Part of the problem is that the carbquik recipes don't have enough liquid. Like with the biscuits. I am a seasoned cook, so I know what the consistency should be. I probably add at least ½ a cup more liquid than the recipe calls for. My biscuits turned out beautifully.
A lot of people are afraid of Carbquik. As somebody who used to bulk and cut all the time (so I purposely yo-yo dieted all the time...), I would recommend that if you're actively trying to lose weight, it's best to avoid or just use it for a minimal-impact cheat meal (Carbquik brownies, pancakes, pot pie etc). But if you're at a point where you're just trying to maintain your weight, it's perfectly fine. It is a very processed food, so I wouldn't eat it everyday though. That said, I sill think fathead dough is way better.
My husband recently discovered your channel and we are enjoying it very much. I'm no fan of CarbQuick because of the wheat, but you aren't being fair to them regarding serving size. They aren't manipulating the serving size to get 2g net carbs. The serving size is 32g. If you look at wheat flour the serving size is right around that. So they are using a standard serving size on the nutrition panel. Now, whether that is an average or reasonable serving is a different matter. The new nutrition guidelines that are coming out call for companies to change their nutrition data panels to better reflect what people actually eat. Think on the fact that a standard serving of pasta is 2oz dry. Most adults are going to eat 2-4 times that amount, depending on what else they are eating with their spaghetti.
In my experience with Carbquik, it is far better flavored than plain. The drop biscuits are rather blah. They also definitely underestimate serving size. I've used it as a quick and dirty thickener/binder for the times I just throw proteins and veggies into a pan and cook it up, and that works very nicely.
I agree, I've used Carbquik for basic biscuits and it's kind of bland, the cheddar bay version is pretty darn good and I used it for mini blueberry muffins and loved it. I liked the cream cheese & egg pancakes over Carbquik batter, but it works in a pinch. I'd be interested to see the results of blood sugar testing, as that seems to be one of the biggest complaints against using Carbquik.
PyrateWench84 I ran out of test strips so I haven't tested yet, but I'll report back and pin a comment when I do finally test my blood sugar. Thanks for watching and commenting! ❤️❤️🙏🙏
Wes i know you won't see this comment bc this video is 3 years old. But I have a pro tip. When I make carbquick. I had 2 tablespoons of melted butter and I do whatever the water amount is. I do that much in heavy cream. And then I still add about that much water. Maybe less. The biscuits don't come out dry and they essentially double the amount of biscuits without the carbs. If that makes sense. They did a terrible job with the instructions. If you make them as they say on the side they come out small and dry. I honestly don't even measure. I eyeball. I makes sure the "dough" is quite moist. Try it next time. I promise you will like it better. Same for topping on stuff like this chicken pie
I bought this a while back. I remember there being a red lobster biscuit recipe that was pretty decent. It involved garlic and cheese as well. This defenitely needed some additional help. I agree this is only good as a necessary rescue to avoid eating something worse. I know I disnt even use it all.
That was a pretty good, educational, and fair review, which is just what I was looking for. Thanks for putting out a quality video. You've earned a new subscriber :)
I've been cooking and experimenting with Carbquik for a few years now. I tried adding eggs, other things to keep it from being crumbly. The solution is to add a little Xanthan Gum. Just that simple. For a few biscuits, a 1/4-1/3 tsp of Xanthan gum is plenty. Add a dash of salt. Mix it well. Cut in some cold butter. Then a little milk, and you have biscuits. I've also make a pretty decent banana nut bread with the Xantham Gum, about 1/2 tsp, really holding it together well. Sometimes Carbquik can have an odd taste. I have found that it is related to cooking temp. Don't cook higher than 370*F. Just cook it longer.
Just made awesome "Sausage Balls" using CarbQuik and I'm sold. I used 2 cups CQ; 1 lb uncooked breakfast sausage; 3 cups grated cheddar; 1 cup grated mozzarella cheese; 2 eggs; 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream; 2 tbs Italian seasoning; 1 tbs garlic. Roll into balls on parchment & bake 350 20-30 min till a crispy golden brown (time depends on ball size) served with mayo/mustard sauce on the side. Big hit at my place. Filling too. Warms up in micro and won't loose it's crunch.
Thanks for the recipe!

I bought a box of Carbquick and was sorely disappointed too! One recipe down the garbage disposal and the box of crap in the freezer, where it still lives.
Stephanie Pratt I totally agree that he should be on the cooking network. He is awesome!! 💕
I made pancakes and thought it was disgusting and threw my box away too.
I like the carbquik biscuits. The main reason that I like them is that they just are a butter delivery vehicle. If you do Half Biscuit and half butter they're really pretty good.
Really love your vids.
William Klein "Butter Delivery Vehicle" would make a great band name! 😜 Thanks for watching and commenting, William!
I bought carb quick! I love it! I have made pie crust for my low carb cheesecake. I like my waffles better with this. I used it to coat my zucchini fries. Half crushed pork rinds. Whole family loved them.

It makes a decent alternative for a lot of things.
Chris Ross Thanks for sharing that. Glad to know it's pretty versatile since I have the Restaurant Size box! LOL
Chris Ross thanks! Just ordered it and the Carbalose Flour (which is dairy free for kosher purposes). I’m expecting to have to tweak the recipes until I like them.
Taste better than almond flour for sure!!! 😁
Please do a video when you make flat bread with carbquik and let us know how it affects your blood sugar, thanks love your channel
I love Carbquik for Cheddar Bay biscuits. It's not the same but scratches my itch!

@@HighfalutinLowCarb I will let you know. I'm familiar with the product. I think I'll better know what to do with it.
I made Papa G's dumplings tonight and they turned out really well. Enjoyed
The blueberry muffins are really good! I used to make them weekly until I ran out of Carbquick. Going to give this one a try since I save most of my daily net carb count for dinner! Thanks for making and sharing this video. Making some pot pie this afternoon!!
I found the Carbquik biscuits a bit dry as well. When I used it in my Low Carb Chicken & Dumplings recipe it turned out great. I think it was because it was cooked submerged in liquid. Great video (as always). Keep 'em coming!
+Papa G Thanks for commenting, Papa G. I can't wait to test dumplings. :-)
I really do like your camera presence. You're a natural!
@@PapaGCooking I've often thought both of you should have their own Saturday low-carb TV cooking show. You for your voice and inflection and Highfalutin for his open spontaneity.
You explaining velouté. Also my grandma after I explain béchamel "Honey, that's gravy."
😂😂😂 That’s right grandma, it doesn’t matter how many fancy syllables you slap together, it’s still gravy!
I love Carbquik pancakes! The garlic cheesy biscuits are great too! I've used Carbquik for years! There are tricks - moisture is an issue. Sometimes more water or heavy cream is needed. Pancake batter is thick!! like Hungry Jack. Don't overwork it - because of the protein it will toughen up! Oh there are recipes on the inside of the box just like Bisquik. More recipes are on their website too. Carbquik has been used in hospitals, nursing homes etc for years. They get it in 25-50lb drums. I also use it in breading with crushed pork rinds. I wish I could upload pics of things I've made with Carbquik. I use Torani Sugar Free Pancake syrup with pancakes. I make a sausage gravy over Carbquik biscuits.
Great ideas!
Thank you for your channel! I love it! I have tried Carbquick, and do like the biscuit recipe that you roll out. What I absolutely LOVE is their recipe for cinnamon rolls. I was shocked at the wonderful flavor. I individually wrapped and froze the extras so I wouldn't be tempted to eat them all at once. I used Sukrin Gold as the sweetener in the filling; absolutely amazing. I highly recommend trying the cinnamon rolls.
I am keto and use this occasionally. With the drop biscuits make sure you baste with a garlic butter sauce. Be generous. Before cooking and after.
I think this casserole is fine for keto. If you only get 4 servings and that's your meal. I'll be making it! Thanks for sharing.
+Nancy Jackson Thanks for the tip, Nancy! Appreciate the comment! ❤️🙏
2 weeks in a row! Yes! Now I did see someone on TH-cam make a chicken pot pie using the fat head dough and it really looked like a pot pie. Thanks for your videos 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks for watching and commenting, Debbie!
Highfalutin' Low Carb You keep making them and I will keep watching! Great information and and with your personality your show is delightful!
One thing I noticed is that if you eat the muffin or biscuit soon after COMMING out of the oven, it DOES seem crumbly. However if you eat the muffins the next day or several hours later, it "stabilizes quite well.
Just took mine out of the oven! It looks delicious! Doubled the recipe. Dont know how it will turn out!! Can't wait to eat it. Thank you so much for helping an older person learn about Carb Quik. I've been dying to eat a biscuit!! And this pot pie. Thank you. Thank you!!❤
I made the cheddar biscuits and used more cheese (I'm cheesy) and also made a garlic herb butter to coat it with after baking...I loved them, very close to Red Lobster biscuits. My only concern is what effects it has on blood ketones, do not have a meter to check.
I enjoy watching your videos. Their are a lot of different recipes out there for Keto for each and every type of dish you can come up with, and you take the different recipes and compare them or let them do battle. I know isn't easy for you to do and still maintain your own meal plan. I am also southern and I too grew up in a small Georgia town and I love southern dishes. Watching you is like watching a friend explain the recipe. I can tell this come from your heart and it is appreciated. Thank you and for the videos and stay strong!
I love Carbquick. I made a pork butt and low carb veggies one night for family visiting from out of state and felt like I should really be serving some bread for dinner. I used the mix to make garlic/cheddar biscuits and EVERYONE loved them. They had no idea they were lower carb.
great video! Carbquick has it's pros and cons, but overall it's a pretty decent product- I love using it around Christmas and the holidays to make sausage balls, and honestly, you'd never know the difference if you didn't have the box right in front of you- keep up the great work!
I have literally been watching ur videos all day! lmao its addicting
LastChance21 i just discovered his channel a few days ago and i can't stop binge watchin his videos 😂😂
You are hilarious...Please keep making low carb videos, I'm on keto and I'm running out of recipes ideas...Thanks for the chuckle!
+Edna Couture Thanks, Edna! Stay tuned - much more to come! :-)
The Sugar Free Diva has a recipe, Low Carb Copycat Red Lobster Biscuits. They use Carbquik. They are very good. That's my main use for CQ. But, yeah, the plain biscuits are not delicious.
Love your videos! I have binge watched them all over the past few days! And you are cute as a button! Thanks for putting in such effort - much appreciated!
+ginny pig Ha! Thanks so much! You're making me blush! 😜
I appreciate your time and effort that put in these videos. Thank you so much for sharing all of these alternatives. I'm trying strict keto but sometimes it seems like I eat the same thing over and over.
I almost spat out my coffee when he said “Apparently I bought the RESTAURANT SIZE!!!”
Super funny guy. Love watching your videos. 👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks, Garry!
I made this for dinner tonight and it was so very good. The crust as he said looks hard but its not as he said its sofy and flakey.
I use carbquik and like it. I will definitely be trying this when I get back from vacation.
Didi1770 Vacation! Have fun!
Came to this channel yeatereqy looking for low carb recipes and binged several videos because I'm just in love with your personality.
I made a sugarless biscotti with it. So basically sugarless and almost carbless. It came out softer then flour. Tastes a little like cornbread. But very good.
I just found your channel a few days ago and have BINGED all your videos lol! You are very inspiring and quite helpful, and for that I want to THANK YOU! I've lived low carb off and on for many many years (I know you can relate darlin'!) Everytime I return to a more keto lifestyle, I get more and more intimidated. If I follow too many folks, I get too many inputs and am basically told if I can't or won't buy top of the line then I can't do it. Sorry, single mom here and my budget is TIGHTER than my old jeans! What I like about you, is you are open minded, you are realistic, and you are so relate able. I'm still scared to eat veggies and such because I've been brain washed to ONLY EAT HIGH FAT items and with my macros hitting 112g fat 45g protein and 17g fat … I can't afford a serving of veggies unless they are tucked in a stick of butter lol! But, watching you go through your REAL LIFE journey is helping me realize that food shouldn't be scary. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU
The cheddar bay biscuits are amazing too. Better than cheating! I’m gonna make that chicken pot pie! Looks really good!
I made pinch chicken and dumplings with it tonight and baked . Was very good.
Mrs. H.H.: My version is more of a casserole than a pie. It’s melted butter, chicken broth, heavy whipping cream, cheese, steamed broccoli, (and/or cauliflower) and cooked cut up chicken and black pepper. The topping is a mixture of mashed pork skins and a few French Fried Onions. I cook at 350 for about 25-30 minutes. It’s delicious!
I found the same recipe on Carbquik website and it said 6 servings, not 10. So even if you make it four, that's only about 4g carbs per serving. I have not yet tried this recipe, but I used the onion cheesebread recipe as an accompaniment to chili (rather than cornbread), and my husband loved it! Said I could make it anytime. When I make the pot pie, I will definitely use more herbs and spices.
lol... "unless your feeding infants".... thank you!!!! I cant stop laughing... I love carbquick... try the breading (double the salt and pepper).... its KFC.... Thanks your the man!!!!
As always, thanks for the great video!
I really do not care about being keto strict as long as it doesn't make my blood sugar jump.
I use CarbQuick to make a dark roux when I make crawfish etouffee and it comes out great!
CarbQuick may work better when mixing it with numerous other ingredients.
Nobody enjoys listening to "Dueling Tuba's", but a tuba is a great part of a full orchestra!
So it may help when you can add other ingredients that give it a different taste or texture like adding allulose, gluten, cheese, garlic, yeast, Italian seasoning, etc.
There’s just no one like you out there! Love your content!
Thank you, Amy! ❤️👍
All the way from Ireland, I thank my lucky stars I came across you, you have helped me to get to grips with low carb and took all the confusion out of it, I also enjoy your laid back and entertaining personality. xx
Thank you so much, Margie!
I make biscuits and gravy, pancakes, waffles and pizza crust also blueberry cobbler… LOVE all of it!
I am so glad I found your channel! I am from the south as well and watching you is like hanging in the kitchen with my brother! You do your research and are honest about what you try. I love the comparison videos too. I am a fan!
Katherine Nelson Aww, thanks Katherine! That's such a heartwarming comment. I appreciate you watching and letting me know your feelings. Stay tuned - much more to come! ❤️❤️🙏🙏
Let me tell you, this southern girl has found the perfect biscuit with Carbquik! It's just a 2 to 1 ratio of Carbquik to heavy whipping cream. Stir it, roll it out with a little extra Carbquik and then cut your biscuits. I bake mine in a buttered cast iron skillet at 425F until golden brown. Light, fluffy and delicious! Just try it! Only 2 ingredients!
You can also throw in some cheddar cheese!
You are Awesome...Love the way you Present
Cee-Lina foster Thanks for watching and commenting, Cee-Lina!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻
He is now one of my favorite reviews. He is real like what one might be in life.
its a good idea to see how it affects your blood sugar, could be used as a "cheat day producti" when trying to make pizza or pancakes, less strict days, keep up the good work
julio moreno Exactly. Great minds think alike! 😜👊🏻
I bought carbquik when my DH was put on a nearly 0 carb diet by his doctor. The drop biscuits are nasty. If you go to the webside they suggest rolled/cutout biscuits. We love them. You use 2 cups of the Carbquik, 1/2 cup heavy cream, 1/8 c. water. Mix them in a mixer until crumbly. Dump the mess out onto a cutting board and knead it until it forms dough. Pat it out and either cut it into 6 biscuits or use a biscuit cutter. Bake 20 minutes in a 350 degree oven. Yum.
I used Carbquik and make homemade biscuits "my way" with added cream and butter. Greased a black iron skillet and got it hot, formed balls and put the biscuits into the frying pan. I cooked them like regular biscuits (I think I put them under a broiled for about a minute or two to brown them). They were pretty good!
I forgot... you can make a great sausage gravy for breakfast with this though! I thought it was as good as regular flour. But I have tried it with other recipes and not a fan.
I like that you are realistic about serving sizes.
Shawna Blacketer Thanks, Shawna!
I've made pancakes and waffles with it and it did really well. I had to tweak the recipe though.
Great video! Thank you so much for sharing with us. I’m pretty curious how it would be regarding a tamale pie.
I used it for panckes (recipe on the box) I loved them!
I just checked the website for the recipe - it says 6 servings & 5 net carbs. Maybe they watched your video and updated it. :)
Never used it and probably won’t use it. I am on a really low carb diet... like 20-25 carbs a day. .. never used bisquick either. We always made homemade biscuits. But anyway I love how honest you are... love watching your channel
I follow a few different keto and health channels. I really enjoy your humor and you're one of the more engaging personalities doing this type of channel. I also love the multi recipe face-offs you do, not many people do many of those. So, thanks for risking your health for my benefit!
I looked at the directions, and decided to improvise. I never could get an exact recipe from my mom cause she just threw stuff together.... I made biscuits for the first time today from carbquik. I didnt even measure. I put a medium sized bowl of carbquik poured milk and put an egg in it. Mixed it to a stiff batter. Put dry carbquik on the counter to keep it from sticking and turned the mixture out on it and kneaded it. I dont do drop biscuits. I patted it out and cut big biscuits out of it. They took longer than 10 minutes.... maybe even 20 or 30 on 350 and put some butter on them and they were good. I didnt like them as much as traditional southern biscuits.... which my mom taught me how to make but they were good. Also you can make your biscuits any size you want just keep an eye on them in the oven. When they are a little firm to the touch and a little brown on top they are done.
I use carb quick occasionally, it does take tweaking. Its quite costly in my opinion. I definitely suggest adding seasonings to the party!
Thank you for doing this. I recently purchased a box. Last night we had taco pie with it. The recipe was not from the website or box. I found it on the Internet. We liked it. I added a 1/2 cup of the Carbquik to recipe and glad I did. Seemed too runny. So, 1 cup liquid to 1 cup Carbquik for the Bisquik copy cat of impossible pies. What you made looks better. Also, a YT channel playing with Carbquik says let it rest for about 1/2 hour when making things like biscuits. The "dough" becomes more like consistency of traditional biscuits.
I'm using it for those times when I would otherwise cheat with something silly like refrigerator biscuits my husband and grandkids like. Breading is something I use with eggplant and zucchini so I'll try it there with addition of grated parm. I do a couple pulses in food processor of chaffles when I've made extra and use as breading also with the addition of grated parm. I look at Carbquik as being comfort food.
I definitely won't part from my regular keto foods I've lived with for years.
I made the carbquick pancake recipe this morning and like you said the serving size is ridulous. Recipe said ten servings of two pancakes each but only made ten 4-5" thin pancakes. They browned exactly like regular pancakes but were very light and very fragile. Taste was acceptable but very light compared to a denser regular pancake. I'm type 2 diabetic so was concerned about my blood sugar levels so I tested two hours after eating and my glucose was 85. Right where it should be.
steelhorses2004 Good to know about the blood sugar. And I can only assume there are some very small people working at Carbquick and they get full very fast! 😜 Thanks for commenting and letting us know about your experience with Carbquick!
I love how your funny and so honest
the thing with carbquick is it is a great option versus the alternative high carb options. other thing is the textures are great but need to add flavor, like salt or garlic powder
Hi ! I also tried Carbquik but made biscuits. I added a little xanthan gum & tsp of ground flax seed to make it less crumbly- my 1st attempt way too crumbly! Your recipes are amazing ! Thanks for sharing ! :)
Thing I noticed about Carbquik is that when it is fresh out of the oven it is tolerable(still has nasty aftertaste) but when it cools down you might as well throw it away. I use it mainly for its breading recipe which is actually pretty good.
If you mill the carb quick in the food processor for 5 minutes prior to mixing in all other ingredients, you’ll find the biscuit dough is easier to work with and it would be less griddy 🙂
I just got Carbquik and the first thing I made was the Bisquick classic coffee cake recipe but changed The ingredients to Swerve, Surkin Gold and added to the dough 1 tsp of LorAnn Buttery Sweet Dough emulsion. That last addition made all the difference. It was delicious and froze well. I’m doing low carb not strict keto. It’s great to get ideas from creative cooks so please play with Carbquik and share. I ordered a whole bunch of flavor extracts from Amazon to create too.
The texture of the biscuit, thank u. That is what i wanted to know
I made sausage balls with carbquik and they turned out very yummy! I'm so glad I found your channel because you give your honest opinion....Thanks for sharing!
i have used it. i made cheddar garlic biscuits not bad at all. had the ck pot pie yesterday and was really good
You save my life with your videos!
I took your note about dry and crumbly and did the drop biscuits. I added an egg to 2/3 cup of carb quick (I just wanted a few biscuits. Added almond milk. Worked great! I need to work on what gives the best rise ( do I need a little more baking powder, a little more flour, I’ll try yeast at some point). Great for when I want an egg and cheese biscuit. Gravy is next.
It's not something we use often, but really it's the best we've found for pancakes to actually taste like pancakes. The pre-packaged almond flour based pancake mix(the name escapes me right now) tastes fine, but the texture isn't there. IMO it needs a little more leavener, and definitely needs some vanilla or cinnamon, or something.
For biscuits tho, we found a recipe that uses a mix of almond and coconut flour to replicate Red Lobster's biscuits that we can't tell the difference.
[EDIT]: Also, that restaurant size is the only size we can find in our area, and we can ONLY find it at Wally World. Nobody else carries it, and the price to order online is inflated to account for shipping.
This channel is in my top 4 go-to for low carb/keto (it’s my favorite for honest reviews). I am thrilled that you made a chicken pot pie, it’s a yummy comfort food that we like to enjoy once in a while. I can’t wait to try all the recipes! 😋😀
I use it most every day to make some bread with sausage patties I use a little extra water and that helps if be fluffy in center.
Hey Wes, I just recently found your TH-cam channel and am now an avid fan. I love your chatty down home manner and honesty. I appreciate all the time and effort you put in. Now I would like to see your own potpie recipe. I think your chicken divan sauce would be a great starter with a topping like 'Almond flour cheddar biscuits' by 'Uplateanyway (they are very light, fluffy & flavorful). Keep up the good work. You are much appreciated!
Thank you, Carolyn! I’ll be sure to check out the biscuits. You’ve spurred me to tackle this! ❤️👍
Your right about the plain biscuits. Cheddar are good.
i just got it and made biscuits - I just eyeballed it and they were so good with butter and a little honey!
I love Carbquik! the cheddar bay biscuits are amazing! I make grilled chicken, cheddar cheese, Cotija cheese, jalapeno tomatillo salsa pot pie, top it with sour cream or crema and cilantro , absolutely d'lish!
Make the biscuits using one part carbquik to half a part heavy whipping cream. Carbquik is wonderful if you watch a lot of the tweaks and pay attention to others alterations
10 servings? NO WAY! Thanks for the info. Love your shows.
Who do they think they're kidding?? LOL! Thanks for watching and commenting!
I made the pot pie and loved it! I I only made half the recipe and used a small casserole dish since I'm the only one on the low carb lifestyle. I also made the falute SP? with the carbquik and chicken broth. I used only the yolk and not the entire egg. I made it again with chili...no beans.
Awesome! Thanks for commenting and sharing, Annette!
Could you check your glucose next time you consume carb quick? I'd love to see if it has any effect. Great videos by the way.
I've developed a Carbquick, home made, bread recipe. I'm working on the carb count. It's little chewy (but so is store bought lo carb bread) But is better than no bread at all.
I just found your channel and I love it. You are so good at this.
Erva Reamsbottom Well, thanks Erva! I appreciate you watching and commenting! ❤️❤️🙏🙏
I make blueberry quick bread and bun toppers for burgers that are both great! Pancakes are awesome and so are waffles. I make quiche with this as the bottom ...I love it
I make biscuits but I add heavy cream. I make sausage gravy with heavy cream and xanthan gum. I make waffles fallowing recipe but I add pecans
I am doing keto for weight loss, altho I am loving the mental clarity and mood stability, so I dont mind the wheat part. I have found that vital wheat gluten is really useful to *crispy stuff up* when frying. Not much is needed - just a dusting but it def makes it (ie. wings) tastier. Am going to experiment with a keto bread product today and see what I get. Hardest part will be figuring Macros which I have not done before. Also i commented below about this but we are collectively serious that you could take this to a network. Absolute natural in front of your camera
Banjojo You're making me blush! LOL. But seriously, I really appreciate the kind words. I need to experiment with using the vital wheat gluten for frying. I want something light and crispy for seafood like fried oysters, calamari or shrimp. Thanks for the info! ❤️❤️🙏🙏
Highfalutin' Low Carb - do you regularly use your glucometer? Your vid on the sweeteners was really interesting and I would love to get a tester but at $90 am not sure its a worthwhile tool - thoughts (anyone)? I am curious if my sugars go up after dry white wine or vodka with seltzer in particular
+Banjojo I don't use it regularly, mostly when I try a new product or if I'm suspicious of something. I know other folks have recommended a glucose meter called ReliOn, sold at WalMart. It's like $15, and the strips are more affordable as well. Might want to check into that one.
Highfalutin' Low Carb thats awesome info thanks! Omw to walmart right now lol
+Banjojo Let me know how it works!
Part of the problem is that the carbquik recipes don't have enough liquid. Like with the biscuits. I am a seasoned cook, so I know what the consistency should be. I probably add at least ½ a cup more liquid than the recipe calls for. My biscuits turned out beautifully.
A lot of people are afraid of Carbquik. As somebody who used to bulk and cut all the time (so I purposely yo-yo dieted all the time...), I would recommend that if you're actively trying to lose weight, it's best to avoid or just use it for a minimal-impact cheat meal (Carbquik brownies, pancakes, pot pie etc). But if you're at a point where you're just trying to maintain your weight, it's perfectly fine. It is a very processed food, so I wouldn't eat it everyday though.
That said, I sill think fathead dough is way better.
Thank you for doing the Pot Pie recipe! I'm going to check it out! I might also do a fat head topper on one and see how it goes.
Shannon Blankenship Report back and lemme know what you think, Shannon! ❤️❤️
You bet!
My husband recently discovered your channel and we are enjoying it very much. I'm no fan of CarbQuick because of the wheat, but you aren't being fair to them regarding serving size. They aren't manipulating the serving size to get 2g net carbs. The serving size is 32g. If you look at wheat flour the serving size is right around that. So they are using a standard serving size on the nutrition panel.
Now, whether that is an average or reasonable serving is a different matter. The new nutrition guidelines that are coming out call for companies to change their nutrition data panels to better reflect what people actually eat. Think on the fact that a standard serving of pasta is 2oz dry. Most adults are going to eat 2-4 times that amount, depending on what else they are eating with their spaghetti.
In my experience with Carbquik, it is far better flavored than plain. The drop biscuits are rather blah. They also definitely underestimate serving size. I've used it as a quick and dirty thickener/binder for the times I just throw proteins and veggies into a pan and cook it up, and that works very nicely.
Lysana McMillan Thank you for commenting and sharing. That sounds like what I'll do with the rest of the box I have. Thanks, Lysana!
I always love your videos! You brighten my days!
CarbQuick was very helpful making the gravy base for my Egg Foo Young
I agree, I've used Carbquik for basic biscuits and it's kind of bland, the cheddar bay version is pretty darn good and I used it for mini blueberry muffins and loved it. I liked the cream cheese & egg pancakes over Carbquik batter, but it works in a pinch. I'd be interested to see the results of blood sugar testing, as that seems to be one of the biggest complaints against using Carbquik.
PyrateWench84 I ran out of test strips so I haven't tested yet, but I'll report back and pin a comment when I do finally test my blood sugar. Thanks for watching and commenting! ❤️❤️🙏🙏
Wes i know you won't see this comment bc this video is 3 years old. But I have a pro tip. When I make carbquick. I had 2 tablespoons of melted butter and I do whatever the water amount is. I do that much in heavy cream. And then I still add about that much water. Maybe less. The biscuits don't come out dry and they essentially double the amount of biscuits without the carbs. If that makes sense. They did a terrible job with the instructions. If you make them as they say on the side they come out small and dry. I honestly don't even measure. I eyeball. I makes sure the "dough" is quite moist.
Try it next time. I promise you will like it better. Same for topping on stuff like this chicken pie
I just purchased a box of carb quick at Walmart. I hope it taste good. Your recipe looks delicious
I bought this a while back. I remember there being a red lobster biscuit recipe that was pretty decent. It involved garlic and cheese as well. This defenitely needed some additional help. I agree this is only good as a necessary rescue to avoid eating something worse. I know I disnt even use it all.
That was a pretty good, educational, and fair review, which is just what I was looking for. Thanks for putting out a quality video. You've earned a new subscriber :)
Thank you so much, Lorien! I appreciate the kind words. Welcome aboard! 👍😃
10? what? 4? I love you lol
Didi1770 😜😜
Highfalutin' Low Carb BTW, 1/4 of that casserole would be 2.5 servings of the CarbQuik recipe And Totally Do-Able❣️
Didi1770 agree! Not even 6! I’d say 4 servings
The one bite to taste test was one serving according to the box lmfao
I have been looking for a way to make gravy. This answered my prayers. Love your videos. Thank you.
