If your recipe calls for self-rising flour and you only have all-purpose, here's how you can adapt.

Difficulty: Easy

Time Required: 1 minute

Here's How:

Using a dry measure, measure the desired amount of flour into a separate container.

For each cup of all-purpose flour, add 1 1/4 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon of salt.

Mix to combine.

Tips:

You can use self-rising flour in yeast bread recipes, but you'll need to omit the salt.

If you use self-rising flour as a substitute for all-purpose flour in a quick bread, omit salt and baking powder.
