Homemade Cake Flour

I have yet to find a gluten free cake flour blend at the store, but luckily cake flour is simple to make. All you need is a good gluten free baking flour blend, gluten free corn starch, and a sifter.

Some cake recipes call for sifted cake flour, as well as some cookie recipes. The cake flour help to make the mixture lighter when compared to an all-purpose flour.

• Measure out 1 cup of you favorite gluten free baking flour blend. Remove 2 TBSP of flour from the cup you just measured.

Notes
