How to Make Self-Raising Flour in the Thermomix
A quick and easy way to make your own self-raising flour.
Servings: 200 g
Ingredients
- 200 g plain flour, (all-purpose flour)
- 2 teaspoons baking powder, see notes
Instructions
- Add the plain flour and baking powder to the Thermomix bowl.
- Mix for 10 sec/speed 5.
- Transfer the flour to an airtight container and store it in a cool, dark pantry for up to 6 months.
Notes
Ensure your baking powder is fresh: If the baking powder is past its use-by date, your cakes and muffins won't rise properly. To check if it's still active, try this quick test:
- Boil some water.
- Place ½ a teaspoon of baking powder into a small ramekin or mug.
- Pour in about 100ml of the hot water.
- If it fizzes energetically, it's active. If it does nothing or fizzes weakly, it's time to replace it.
