Most of the recipes I try are not naturally gluten-free. I adjust ingredients and make them that way! But I have come across several lately that have called for self-rising flour. So I did a little research and I now have a recipe for self rising flour!!! It's super easy. You may have actually made your own self-rising flour before you went gluten-free. In that case, this will be no problem!
For every 1 cup of regular flour (like the flour mixture that I use - click here), you need to add:
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. baking soda
And now you have gluten-free self-rising flour!!!! Hope you give it a try and enjoy it!!

Flour for the locals
I just posted my bread recipe, and I wanted to tell you where I get my flours. There's a lot of places on-line you can order them, but who wants to pay to ship that? You can sometimes find them in bulk food or health food stores. I get my flours at a Bulk Food Store. Around here, we have several bulk food stores, and they have all the different flours. At this store, we buy 25 lb. bags of rice flour and other things bulk like that. It lasts a long time and is cheaper to buy in bulk. I will give you the information for the store I use, so if you live near you can check it out!!!
Springs Store
1726 Springs Road
Springs, PA 15562
Phone: 814-662-4175
(This is about 1 mile out of Grantsville, MD)
If you have questions about what they carry or any questions about eating gluten-free, feel free to call the store and ask for "Twila." She is very knowledgeable about gluten-free things. The store also has a whole section with tons of gluten-free things like crackers, cookies, pasta, etc.

Flour
Before I got too many recipes posted, I wanted to give you my flour mixture. I have tried a lot of different flour mixtures and this one is BY FAR my favorite. You can use it cup for cup in place of wheat flour called for in regular recipes.
2 cups white rice flour
2/3 cup potato starch
1/3 cup tapioca flour
Combine all ingredients and sift, or stir with a wire whisk until well combined. Store in an airtight container.
Personal Note:
-I like to make LOTS of batches at one time and then have them for whenever I need them!
-It will depend on where you live as to where you will be able to find your flours. These are the more popular flours, so shouldn't be too hard to find. If you can buy them in bulk, that's the best way. We buy 25 pound bags of rice flour from a local bulk/health food store. It's best to look around and see what you can find.
-If you want to make my recipes, but don't need them to be gluten-free, just use regular flour and ommit the xanthan gum
