1 1/2 cups Bisquick mix (or any pancake/baking mix)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
Optional: Ranch dressing or hot sauce for dipping
Instructions:
Preheat Your Oven
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it for easy cleanup.
