Bhatura from pancake Mix/Bisquick Bhatura-Instant Bhatura with pancake mix requires only two ingredients, pancake mix and wholewheat flour. Unlike the traditional bhaturas, these don’t require any baking soda, baking powder, yeast, yogurt or club soda. These bhaturas don’t have to rest for hours for the dough to ferment, instead its as easy as make dough, rest for 15 minutes while the oil heats and enjoy your instant bhaturas!
Bhaturas made from maida/All Purpose flour are hard to roll and become stretchy and chewy once cold. These bhaturas from pancake Mix/Bisquick Bhaturas are easy to roll, don’t soak up any oil, and stay fluffy and soft even after a few hours. Pancake Mix bhaturas don’t require any special skills to puff up while frying, these practically puff up on their own!
These bhaturas taste best with chana/chick peas or Rassedar Aloo/curried potatoes and Bangalore style Carrot Beetroot Raita. If you struggle to make your puris puff up then do read my post on Perfect Puffy Puris. One of the most popular type of puris on my blog is the Instant Bedmi Puri or Dal ki Puri which I make without soaking or grinding the dal! Palak ki Puri, Beet ki Puri and Shyam Savera Puris are some of the other types of puris to try out.

My bhatura didn’t fluff up, any suggestion why?
Aanchal Gupta
Hi Raja, sorry to hear it didn’t fluff up. Did you make any changes to the recipe or did you follow it exactly
Veena Barde
Hi Aanchal , I made this today, really yuumy, thx for recipe.
But mice did not fluff up entirely either, they are fluffed up partially. But they sure were Very yummy.
Aanchal Gupta
Hi Veena, thanks for trying out my recipe and sharing your feedback. Glad to know they were yummy and you enjoyed them. Set dough aside for 15 minutes or roll thicker bhaturas, that might help in puffing them up.

Can we use bisquick buttermilk batter too or just the original bisquick??
Aanchal Gupta
Hi Richa, I haven’t tried with the buttermilk batter so can’t say but I think it should work. I always buy the original bisquick mix.
