Make your own GF Baking Flour blend

Which Gluten Free Flour is the best for baking?

All (well ,almost) GF baking flour blends, available in the market use additives, gums,husks,milk powder and so on… to be able to give you the “Gluten” effect in your GF baking. They do give the right texture and taste, you want to achieve ,but at the cost of your health.  


Take Charge of your health!

                     Make your own GF baking flour!





Sharing with you, the ideal structure of GF baking flour blend and how you can make it yourself, depending upon the ingredients available to you and suitable for your health.

Within each Ingredient Family, you could have your own combination of flours mentioned above. For example, there was a time when I realized my son had problems with any fiber other than coconut. So I made my own blend consisting of : White rice flour (60%) , Coconut flour (10%) ,  Tapioca(20%), Potato starch (10%).

So go ahead,wear your thinking hat and experiment in your lab , kitchen that is :). Make a blend that goes best for your own and your families' requirements in terms of taste, texture and health.

For most Celiacs  and Gluten sensitive population fiber is not a friend and hence is best avoided. Fiber by definition is roughage and for already damaged intestines, roughage is too rough , too scraping . That is the reason I do not include these fibrous flours in my GF Baking Flour Blend. You may or may not do so as per the signs your body gives you .
