You can make your own buttermilk. To make 1 cup of buttermilk, put a tablespoon of vinegar into a 1-cup measuring cup and fill the rest of the way with regular milk.
You can also make your own self-rising flour. Just mix together thoroughly 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 1½ teaspoons of baking powder, and ¼ teaspoon of salt.
