Can you use self rising flour in a bread machine to make bread?
It can be used, although not with very tasty results. Self Raising Flour is a flour that has been pre-mixed with Yeast, although Yeast alone has a very powerful, pungent smell, its what gives bread most of its flavour. Using Strong White Bread Flour and Yeast seperately and not Self-Raising yields much better results and can be varied to suit any recipe.
