You can't. Self rising flour has enough baking powder in it for itself. You can't add more flour to it and expect it to work.

What can you use instead baking soda?
Using Baking Powder Instead of Baking Soda* You need to use 2-3 times more baking powder than baking soda. The extra ingredients in the baking powder will have an effect on the taste of whatever you are making, but this isn't necessarily bad. * Ideally, triple the amount of baking soda to equal the amount of baking powder. So, if the recipe called for 1 tsp baking soda, you would use 3 tsp baking powder. * What I do is compromise... I use twice the amount of baking powder as baking soda (add 2 tsp of baking powder if the recipe calls for 1 tdp baking soda), plus I omit the salt (which adds flavor but also affects rising in some recipes).
Weight of 1 teaspoon of baking powder?

What would you put baking soda in?
Baking soda is a leavening agent and is used in many different types of baked goods. Many cookie recipes call for baking soda rather than baking powder. Recipe's such as Red Velvet Cake and some chocolate cakes also call for baking soda, some along with baking powder, some as the only leavening agent. Baking soda combined with equal amounts of cornstarch and twice as much cream of tartar can be used to replace baking powder. Use about one-quarter the amount of baking soda as the recipe calls for baking powder, and then scale the corn starch and cream of tartar accordingly.
What produces more carbon dioxide when mixed with vinegar baking soda or baking powder?
If one is working with equal amounts, baking soda might produce more carbon dioxide when mixed with vinegar, because baking powder is already combined with an acidic ingredient.
What does 1 tablespoon of baking powder equal in grams?
It depends on the density of the particular brand of baking powder you are using. The best way to determine the weight in grams is using division: look at the baking powder container's label to determine how many grams is contained in the entire package, and divide that number by the number of tablespoons in the container. The result will be the number of grams of baking powder per tablespoon.
Substitutes for baking powder?
HOMEMADE SUBSTITUTE FOR BAKING POWDER 2 tbsp. cream of tartar 1 tbsp. baking soda 1 tbsp. cornstarch Sift together. Store in airtight container. One teaspoon of this is equal to 1 teaspoon store bought baking powder. Source: www.cooks.com Baking powder has two active ingredients: Cream of tartar (tartaric acid) and baking soda (sodium bicarbonate). The reaction of these two creates a salt and a gas, (carbon dioxide) which, as it is larger in volume than the original ingredients, causes the food to fluff up, rise etc. If the other ingredients in the recipe include an acid (say milk which has lactic acid) then the cream of tartar can be reduced or eliminated, as the baking soda will react with any acid. It is important to get the proportions correct or there can be not enough rising or a bad tasting result! If too much of baking powder is used the resultant salt will also affect the taste of the food. Other methods of creating lightening or rising involve incorporating air in the food that will expand during the cooking process, (beating and folding), or adding yeast that as is grows, exhales gas, (carbon dioxide again) creating more of those useful bubbles. Foods that use rising require binders such as proteins, (examples are the gluten in some flours and the protein in egg whites,) as these are elastic enough to stop the bubbles bursting, but are fixed when dried out enough and the baking is complete. That is why a cake or souffle will fall or flop if removed from the oven before it is done: the bubbles are still elastic and can be broken.
What can you use to substitute baking powder in chocolate ship cookies?
You can use cream of tartar and baking soda as a replacement for baking powder. One half teaspoon of cream of tartar and one quarter teaspoon of baking soda will equal one teaspoon of baking powder.
Is cake flour the same as self rising flour?
Short answer: NO. they are not the same. Do NOT use one for the other. I was trying out a new peach cobbler recipe. It called for self-rising flour. I found the definition for self-rising flour which is basically flour with some type of rising agent (usually baking powder) in it. That is what I thought cake flour was -- flour with baking powder. When i made the recipe using the cake flour, the cobbler did not turn out/did not rise. Therefore, I would not use cake flour in place of self=rising flour again. Use 1 cup regular flour minus 2 teaspoons. Add 1 and 1/2 teaspoon baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt to equal 1 cup.
How baking soda do you use for baking powder?
Replacing Baking Soda with Baking PowderBaking powder is powdered acid plus a powdered base. When liquid is added they mix together and form carbon dioxide. Baking soda is just a powdered base and needs acid in a recipe in order to create the bubbles needed to rise dough or batter. I've found that if you add about 4 times more baking powder you should create something that works about right. You may want to decrease your acid a little though. Then again...Baking soda reacts with acids to make baked goods rise while baking powder reacts with water. Because of that, most of the time they can't replace each other. After testing the above suggestion I have found that 4 times the amount is far too much baking powder. I would suggest trying only double the amount. This was tried in a biscuit recipe, and baking powder is fine as an alternative.
