IMPORTANT NOTE:
All my recipes are developed using a digital scale and the metric system (grams and millilitres). Cup measurements are available as a conversion but these, unfortunately, won't always be as accurate. For best results, I always recommend baking with a digital scale.
NOTES
Make it in Bulk:
If you use self-raising flour regularly, you can make a larger batch by whisking together 1.5kg plain flour and 20 teaspoons (6 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons) of baking powder. Or, if you prefer to measure in cups, whisk together 12 cups all-purpose flour and 6 tablespoons of baking powder. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place and use whenever a recipe calls for self-raising flour.Tried this recipe?
