Notes

Use this amount of flour for 1 cup or self rising flour in your recipe. Scales this recipe up to meet your needs.
This homemade version is a great substitute when you don’t have commercial self-rising flour on hand. It’s a quick and easy solution that can be made with staple kitchen ingredients.
You can make a larger batch of self-rising flour and store it in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for up to six months. Just scale up the recipe according to your needs.
Sifting is especially crucial as it not only combines the ingredients but also aerates the flour, resulting in lighter, fluffier baked goods.
Use this homemade self-rising flour immediately, or store it as noted for future use. Be mindful of the added leavening agents when using this in recipes.
