The ultimate baking season is here! And let me tell you, there’s nothing worse than having a desire to bake something, and not have all the ingredients ready to use in your pantry… am I right? That’s why I keep a set of pantry staples stocked at all times!
Come November and December I usually get an itch to try baking something out of my comfort zone (re: a bit more complicated), but I’ve had good success the last few years in trying out recipes like these ginger molasses cookies or cinnamon roll monkey bread. I saw this recipe for baked apple cinnamon shortcake, and couldn’t resist whipping them up for an after dinner dessert.

Pantry staples I’m never without thanks to my Walmart+ membership
I’ll admit this time around I didn’t have the time to make from scratch biscuit dough, and didn’t have a box of Bisquick on-hand. But thanks to my awesome Walmart+ membership I was able to order what I needed to bake the shortcake recipe, and receive it with unlimited free delivery from my store ($35 order min. Restrictions apply). Saving time AND making my life easier, by not having to go into the store!
Haven’t heard of the Walmart+ membership yet? It’s a membership offering at $98 a year or just $12.95 per month. With tons of benefits, shopping in store, online or for groceries has never been easier.
Although scooping up groceries with my Walmart+ membership is my go-to, I also haven’t been able to resist the style offerings, too! You might remember these cute summer dresses I found earlier in the year via their exclusive label Scoop? I’ve also got this cozy cardigan sweater in my cart, with free shipping, no order minimum (Excludes most Marketplace items, location & freight surcharges.) thanks to my membership.


One of my favorite offerings of the membership – the mobile scan & go! Check out in store on your app, as you shop… eliminating the need to wait in the checkout line (especially during the busy holiday season).
To make sure I’m never without my go-to pantry staples like coconut sugar or flour, I make a note in my planner to place an order with my Walmart+ membership to replenish my pantry whenever I run out. That way there’s no need for me to try to remember on a random grocery-store run, and inevitably forget to pick-up one of the pantry staples I ran out of.
So thanks to the unlimited free delivery from my Walmart store, I snapped up a box of Bisquick to make “from scratch tasting” shortcake dough for our dessert and can’t wait to share the recipe with you in a future post soon!
