Favorite Gluten Flours & DIY GF Blends, DIY Gluten Free Flour Blends, "Go-To"

I know first-hand how expensive Gluten Free baking is!!!

You want the best flours for the BEST RESULTS! 

Especially when you are searching for a Gluten Free flour that's not only great in Gluten Free recipes but also in your own favorite (regular wheat) flour recipes. Not to mention all the gems you find all over the Internet!

My favorite "go-to" Gluten Flours by far are...

Great for making:

• Animal Crackers (perfectly sweet & crisp)
• Banana Bread & Coconut-Butter-Pecan Topping

I adore it for:

• Daddy's Oatmeal Cookies (taste just like they should!!!)
• Nicole's Gluten Free Pie Crust (or "Better than Cup4cup")

                           

Better Batter GF Flour, 5 Pound              Cup4Cup GF Flour, 3 lb

  

Note: GF flours may require more hydration than regular, white all-purpose flour. When substituting, you might first add a bit less GF flour to the original recipe or compensate with a little liquid (tsp - Tbsp) as necessary.

I've tried oodles of D.I.Y. flour blends!

 Hands down, my favorites (so far) are formulated by master Gluten Free cookbook author Nicole Hunn and blogger of http://glutenfreeonashoestring.com. 

Her GF Blends HIT IT out of the PARK for me!

On her "Choosing A Gluten Free Blend" page, don't miss out on the - DOWNLOAD HERE - link just above #4 Mock Better Batter. It's an Excel document, which you put in the cups of flour you want, per blend, and it automatically calculates the ingredients for you!

Her blends are included in the Download on that page:

• Basic "Gum-Free" Gluten Free Flour Blend
• All-Purpose Better than Cup4Cup Blend
• All-Purpose Mock Better Batter Blend
• High-Quality Gluten Free (Bread) Flour 

Ingredients: 

For instance... I'll make the Basic "Gum-Free" Blend to make Buttermilk Pancakes and such. 

I like to make her "Better than Cup4Cup" too.

Personally, I buy 5 lb bags of Better Batter GF Flour. 

You can strengthen either the Better Batter GF Flour or Mock Blend with some Whey Protein Isolate and Expandex (or Ultra-tex) to make her Bread Flour Blend. (It's all in the Download. Ms. Hunn blogs lots of recipes and her cookbook, GFOAS Bakes Bread is available on Amazon.)

  

Here are the ingredient resources, you don't need them all unless you are do ALL the blends at once.
