Recipes with Self-Rising Flour

Self-rising flour is a mixture of all-purpose flour, baking powder and salt. It is usually made with a softer wheat, so it creates a more tender product, and is commonly used for biscuits. If you don't have self-rising flour, you can make it yourself. To make self-rising flour, combine 1 cup of flour with 1 ½ teaspoons of baking powder and ¼ teaspoon of salt. It should weigh 4.5 oz or about 128 grams per cup.This is my running list of recipes made with self-rising flour.

Self-Rising Flour Recipes

Banana Bread -- This is a very basic recipe for banana bread with self-rising flour. It's also one of the most popular recipes on this blog.

Double Chocolate Cookies -- Another one of my favorite recipes, these can be made without an electric mixer.  The recipe is from White Lily.

Easy Chocolate Muffins --  I've made this recipe twice in the past week.  They're perfect if you like a not-too-sweet muffin, but if you add 2 tablespoons they'll be more dessert-like.

Biscuits for Two -- Very easy small batch biscuit recipe.

Sour Cream Biscuits -- In this post I used the biscuits for strawberry shortcake, but they are delicious by themselves.

Yellow Cake -- This recipe, adapted from the Magnolia Bakery Cookbook, calls for half self-rising flour and half all-purpose.
