Literally anything that calls for self-rising flour. Biscuits are the classic. Buttermilk, butter, a hot oven—heaven in a basket.
You can also make pancakes, scones, or even a quick loaf of bread. It’s the ultimate shortcut for lazy Sunday mornings.
Seriously, my favorite thing is to use this mix for drop biscuits. No rolling, no cutting. Just scoop and bake. Your inner sloth will rejoice.
The Emergency Backup Plan
What if you have no baking powder? Stop right there. You can’t make self-rising flour without some leavening agent. Baking powder is non-negotiable.
But if you have baking soda and cream of tartar, congrats—you just made DIY baking powder. Combine 2 parts cream of tartar with 1 part baking soda. Then use that in your ratio.
Yeah, it’s a little extra work. But you’re a coffee-chatting, panicking baker. You’ve got this.
