There are many gluten-free flours available in stores; however, I often find I prefer homemade flour. For anyone interested, here is how to make your own homemade gluten-free flour at home. You can keep this mix on hand and use it in place of white wheat flour in your favorite recipes.

Gluten-Free Flour Mix Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups white rice flour
  • 1/3 cup tapioca flour
  • 2/3 cup potato starch flour (not plain potato flour)

Directions:

  1. Combine all the ingredients in a large bowl and mix thoroughly.
  2. Sift the mixture into a large airtight container.
  3. Store in a container tightly closed.

This recipe yields 3 cups, but you can easily increase it if you need more.
