If you need to eat gluten free, one thing you discover pretty quickly is gluten free flour needs to be a blend to achieve results similar to wheat flour. I have made A LOT of different flour blends. I have also purchased inexpensive and expensive blends. But for the most part, this blend works really well for me in most of my recipes. It is my go-to blend that I always have ready made.

The tiger nut flour was an addition I made a month or so after I had been using this blend. I really think it makes a huge difference in flavor. To me it make it seem closer to a “wheat” flavor. So for that reason, I wouldn’t skip that ingredient. But if you just don’t have it, you can add another ounce of Almond flour.

Equipment

  • 1 digital scale
  • 1 large bowl
  • measuring cups

Ingredients
  

  • 24 oz White Rice Flour make sure your rice flour is finely blended if possible
  • 7 oz Almond Flour
  • 7 oz Potato Starch
  • 3 oz Arrowroot Flour
  • 1 oz tiger nut flour this really adds to the depth of flavor in your baked goods
  • .75 oz non-fat dry milk

Instructions
 

  • Using a digital scale weigh each ingredient and place in a large bowl. Mix well using a large whisk. Store in a large glass container with a good sealing lid. Use in place of "normal" flour.
  • NOTE: This flour blend DOES NOT have xanthan gum. You will need to add this if your recipe calls for a flour blend with xanthan gum.

Notes

** If you can’t do almond flour, you can substitute brown rice flour. This will make your baked goods go stale faster though in my opinion, so I never use brown rice flour.

I buy my rice flour in bulk from. a restaurant supply store. You can check out local stores that have celiac safe rice flour. I buy my almond flour at Costco. For the Potato Starch, Arrowroot, and Non-Fat Dry Milk I love Anthony’s brand, and I order it on Amazon.

I have noticed that my rice flour, even when you buy a good brand, needs to be grinded a bit more. Having a home grinder has been a great blessing for navigating celiac disease. I take all my rice flour, re-grind it in my grinder, and store it in a large glass jar in my kitchen. Make sure you let your flour COOL DOWN before putting the lid on. The grinder heats the flour up, so just check and stir the flour and wait until it’s 100% cooled down before putting the lid on.

Happy Baking!
