"This flour simplifies baking by pre-measuring leavening, reducing error and speeding up preparation for many beloved comfort foods."

Definition

A pre-mixed flour containing leavening agents (baking powder) and salt, ideal for quick breads, biscuits, and some cakes.

Leavening Ratio ~1.5 tsp baking powder & 1/4 tsp salt per cup of all-purpose flour
Optimal Storage Temp Below 24°C (75°F) in an airtight container
Protein Content Typically 8-10%, similar to all-purpose flour

Flavor Profile

The primary flavor notes for Self Rising Flour are:

Neutral slightly salty can be slightly metallic if baking powder is old

Chef’s Secret

If you don't have self-rising flour, you can easily make your own by adding 1.5 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon of salt to every cup of all-purpose flour.

Best Substitutes

All-Purpose Flour + Baking Powder + Salt

1 cup APF : 1.5 tsp BP : 1/4 tsp salt

Buying Guide

Check the expiration date, as leavening agents lose potency over time.
