There are more people with Celiac every year and even more people going gluten-free by choice for nutritional purposes. It's easier to find gluten-free alternatives these days than in previous years, but it is still challenging for some baked goods. Here is a great recipe for gluten free flour that you can use in cakes, breads, pizza, and many other food items. And it won't break your budget either!
Gluten-Free Flour Mixture
Yield: 3 cups
This mix can be used as a one-to-one cup substitution for wheat in most recipes. Gluten-free flour, mix the following ingredients.
Ingredients
- 2 cups white rice flour
- 2/3 cup potato starch*
- 1/3 cup tapioca starch
All of the above items can be found at most local supermarkets. Whole Foods carries all of these products for instance. These items can be found at less cost at various international food markets. If you do not want to mix your own gluten free flour mixture, most supermarkets carry ready-made gluten free mixtures.
Binding Agent
All gluten-free recipes require a binding agent to make up for the lack of gluten. For each cup of gluten-free flour (or flour mix) use an appropriate amount of xanthan or guar gum (found in local markets): 1 tsp for cakes 2 tsps for breads or pizza. 1 tsp works fine for most cookies.
Now enjoy that dough and use the energy to make dough!
