What is Carbquik?
Cris here.
When I first started low carb living I tried all kinds of products and recipes that attempted to replicate some of my carb loaded favorite foods. There were some wins and some major fails, but during that process we discovered Carbquik and it quickly it became a staple ingredient in our low carb kitchen.
So, what is Carbquik? It is a low carb biscuit mix alternative that behaves very similar to the traditional bisquick you find at the grocery store.
What does Carbquik taste like?
On Amazon Carbquik says ” Carbquik is a complete, low carb baking mix made with Carbalose that is similar to Bisquick. Since Carbquik is made from Carbalose instead of regular flour, it contains 90% less Net Carbs than Bisquick. Carbquik can be used in many recipes, such as biscuits, muffins, pancakes, waffles, pizza crust, and dumplings, as well as many cake and sweet dough recipes. “
What can I make with Carbquik?
We enjoy Carbquik in both sweet and savory dishes. Below are some of our favorites.

After years of using (and loving) Carbquik, I’ve finally found a perfect biscuit recipe. This makes two large biscuits (I use them for bacon/egg/cheese biscuits). 2/3 cup CQ, 1/4 cup sour cream, 1 egg white and just enough water to make a thick dough. I bake then in ramekins sprayed with baking spray. 400 degrees for about 15 minutes. They hold together nicely and have really good flavor.
do you have a carbquik recipe for Pineapple Upside Down Cake?
Unfortunately, we do not. Sorry!
Your site is very helpful. Do you have a recipe for hamburger and hotdog buns?
Hi Shar!
I don’t make homemade buns. I prefer these from Sola for a low carb option. (Amazon Referral: https://amzn.to/3uC4ujf).
Hope that helps!
Can you make bagels
We haven’t tried, but you might check their website to see if they have recommendations. We’d love to hear how it goes!
I love the Carbquick. Does anyone have a recipe for chicken pot pie?
Hi Laurie-
I believe Carbquik has a recipe for chicken pot pie on the box. Hope that helps!

Hello. Have you ever tried carbquik in a pasta recipe? Thanks for all the recipes!
Hello There-
I haven’t tried making pasta with it. When I make a pasta dish, I typically use this pasta (amazon referral link) https://amzn.to/3bZNRUF . Hope that helps!
Hi, can bagels be made with carbquick? Perhaps you’ve tried? I’m looking for a great bagel that’s not too heavy in Fats. Thanks in advance.
Hi Carol-
I haven’t tried bagels with it… you can definitely make bread in the shape of a bagel with it, but I am not sure you can get that texture with it. My favorite bagels are these (Netrition referral link) ThinSlim Foods Love the Taste Zero Carb Bagels
Hope that helps!
Hi Chris,
Do you think Carbquik would be an acceptable replacement for plain flour in making a pound cake? I have wondered about this ever since I got my first box.
Thanks for all the time you spend experimenting to come up with the recipes you share with us.
Hugs & love, Linda C.
You could give it a try. I very much like it in a shortcake.
Carbquik has a pound cake on their website you might give a try: http://www.tovaindustries.com/carbalose/recipe2.php?c=24
I will look into creating a crock pot version for this site soon,
Thanks very much for the Carbquik link! Didn’t know it was there. Next time I feel adventurous I’ll make the pound cake.
Linda
There’s a recipe for pound cake on the box of carbquick
Oh yay! More Carbquik recipies! You introduced me to Carbquik just days after my Hubby was diagnosed with type 2. So you helped me revamp how I make lots of things for him. Cheddar Bay Biscuits a life saver for him. And I have other favs I can now make again. Thank you!
Hi Paula!
I am so glad to hear that the recipes are helpful for you guys! Thanks so much for taking the time to let me know!
