When baking a sweet potato pie you should use flour to thicken the potato pulp if is too liquid, but no more than 1 level tablespoon for two cups of prepared sweetened pulp. If you have used eggs in your recipe there really is not reason to ever use baking powder until you're putting it in the recipe for the pie crust. One 9-inch pie crust should hold approximately 2 - 2 1/2 cups of potato pulp.
The recommended ratio of flour to baking powder for making fluffy pancakes is typically 1 cup of flour to 1 teaspoon of baking powder.
No, you cannot use baking powder instead of flour in a recipe. Baking powder is a leavening agent that helps baked goods rise, while flour provides structure and substance to the recipe.
You can use plain flour with a teaspoon of baking powder.
Follow the recipe for the amount of baking powder to use whether your using regular flour or cake flour. Neither of them have baking powder, unless it is "self rising" which means leavening is included.
flour
If a recipe calls for self-rising flour, your recipe will not turn out if you replace it with unbleached flour only because unbleached flour does not rise. You would also need to add baking powder to the recipe (about three teaspoons per cup of flour) if you were making this substitution in order for your recipe to rise.
No. Baking powder doen't work anything like flour when it comes to gravy. You might be able to use other thickeners but if you're making gravy by making a roux and then adding liquid, you pretty much have to use flour.
Use self-rising flour instead of all-purpose flour, and you can leave out the baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
You can use self rising flour. Just omit any salt, baking soda, and baking powder. The texture is not as "heavy" and is the way I like it. Very tasty.
Baking powder is a leavening agent that helps baked goods rise, while flour provides structure and texture. Baking powder adds air to the mixture, making it lighter and fluffier, while flour gives the baked goods their structure and helps them hold their shape.
I often use flour (all purpose) in recipes calling for bisquick. I just add a little bit of baking powder and a tiny bit of salt.
Hmmm. One can not substitute flour with baking powder. One can however substitute selfraising flour with ordinary flour and a few teaspoons of baking powder. (My best guess would be approx 1 teaspoon of baking powder per 150-200 grams of flour.)
