Baking Powder

An ingredient I avoid is corn and just like gluten it’s used in a lot of products you may not realize. One of those products is baking powder.

Description

Most companies add cornstarch to prolong shelf life and absorb moisture. For me it’s another thing I have to make myself but thankfully this is an easy one. 

I use tapioca starch instead of cornstarch. I have found tapioca to be the starch my body can handle best. I still use sparingly. I use in a few cookie recipes and this baking powder recipe but otherwise I avoid starches. Corn, rice, and potato starch is so hard for me to break down and cause digestive blockage. The pain is not worth it to me.

Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup cream of tartar
  • 2 tbsp baking soda
  • 2 tsp tapioca starch
Instructions
    Add the following ingredients to an airtight container. Mix and store.

  1. 1/4 C cream of tartar

  2. 2 T baking soda
