Yes, in many recipes. But you would need to reduce or eliminate any baking powder or baking soda or salt called for in your recipe. In pastries, gravies and other foods that do not call for any baking soda or baking powder, self-rising flour would not be good to use and could spoil the food's taste or texture.

∙ 13y agoYes, in many recipes, but not all. If making yeast bread, the baking powder in self-rising flour would make little difference to the rising. However, you would need to reduce the salt in the recipe, because self-rising flour already contains salt.

Normally not. Bread flour is does not contain chemical leavening agents, whereas self raising flour does. (So you'd be adding in additional raising agents which will probably mess up the end result).

Can you use gluten free flour instead of self raising flour?
Technically all flour has gluten in it. Gluten is a protein found in food processed from wheat and other related species. Different kinds of flours have different levels of gluten (bread flour has high gluten vs. cake flour with low gluten). Self-rising flour is all-purpose flour with salt and some kind of leavening agent. So yes, self-rising flour, like all flour has gluten in it. It just doesn't have special amount added or taken away like bread or cake flour does. It has same gluten content as all-purpose flour.

It can be used, although not with very tasty results.

Using Strong White Bread Flour and Yeast seperately and not Self-Raising yields much better results and can be varied to suit any recipe.
