An easy, lighter all purpose gluten free flour blend that can be subbed cup-for-cup with regular all-purpose flour. Use it in baked goods, as a breading/coating for meat and as a thickener for soups and gravies.
A while back I shared my go-to gluten-free all-purpose flour with you. It called for brown rice flour, potato starch and tapioca flour. While it was a great flour blend, I wanted to experiment with it a bit more. I wanted a flour that produced lighter baked goods. That flour is this all purpose gluten free flour blend!
Instead of using all brown rice flour, I use equal parts of brown rice and white rice flour. I’ve found that the texture of muffins and cake are a little less dense and ‘feel’ better when eating. I’ve also started measuring my flour differently. I used to just scoop it out and level it off. By measuring it that way, I was actually using a little bit more flour than I should have been.
Now, I give the flour a quick stir and then us a spoon to scoop the flour into my measuring cup. I then use the straight edge of the spoon handle to level it off. I know that’s not a new way of measuring and it does take a few extra seconds of work but it really does make a difference.
I just didn’t do it because of the extra few steps it took. Lazy. But now I do it the right way and it seems to be paying off with better baked goods. So give this all purpose gluten free flour blend a try and let me know how it works for you!

I like garbanzo flour, how can I convert to all purpose? Thank you

Hi Janet, you'll have to experiment with the right ratios for that. I don't like baking with garbanzo bean flour and it's not a flour blend I have on hand. Bob's Red Mill makes a blend that contains bean flour, it might be worth looking into.

Previously I have been using the premade flour blends and found my bakes to be gritty alot of times. I made up this blend and used in your corn muffin recipe and it was not gritty and they had a nice texture.

I use the Authentic brand of superfine rice flours, because I find regular rice flours too gritty. They seem to work in most recipes that call for brown and/or white rice flour, and there is no grit at all. I got them on Amazon, which I dislike recommending , but sometimes you're stuck with it. I'm going to try the blend with those and see what happens!
