Okay, here’s my post about recipes using self-rising flour.
So, I decided to mess around with self-rising flour today. I’ve always had it in my pantry, you know, for those “just in case” moments. Well, today was one of those days. I woke up with a serious craving for something homemade and bready, but my energy levels were at, like, a two. Self-rising flour seemed like the perfect shortcut.

First, I wanted to see what I could do without adding too much complicated stuff to the mix. I found this recipe online for a super simple quick bread. It was basically just the self-rising flour, some milk, a little sugar, and that’s it! I tossed it all in a bowl, mixed it up – didn’t even need to get out the mixer – and poured it into a greased loaf pan. I threw that baby in the oven and waited. I have to say I was a bit skeptical. Could something so simple actually taste good?

While that was baking, I got a little more adventurous. I had some overripe bananas sitting on the counter. Usually, I would make banana bread, but that’s a whole process with the mashing and the multiple bowls. Then I remembered I read that you can also use self-rising flour as a substitute. I figured, why not? I mashed up the bananas. I dumped them in a bowl with the self-rising flour, some eggs, a little cinnamon, and some brown sugar because I like things sweet. I mixed that up, added a few nuts for some crunch, and poured it into a separate loaf pan. Into the oven it went!

Next, because I was on a roll, I decided to tackle pancakes. I usually dread making pancakes because of all the separate dry ingredients. But with self-rising flour, it’s just one thing! I whisked together the flour, an egg, some milk, and a splash of vanilla. I heated up my griddle, melted some butter on it, and poured on the batter.

The Results
Okay, drumroll, please… everything turned out surprisingly awesome! The quick bread was moist and fluffy, perfect with a little butter and jam. The banana bread was a hit too – it was easier than my usual recipe and just as delicious. And the pancakes? They were light, fluffy, and cooked up perfectly. I even tried making some biscuits with the remaining flour, and they were great too! Who knew this stuff was so versatile?
So, yeah, self-rising flour is officially my new best friend in the kitchen. It saved me so much time and effort, and everything I made was a success. If you’re looking for some easy baking wins, definitely give it a try! I’m already thinking about what I’m going to bake next. Maybe some muffins? Or a cake? The possibilities are endless!
