hi guys, I know I can make up my own, but I just want to buy a all purpose mix that would be good to keep on hand for a pizza crust or to make a cake or brownies..things like that
I tried Bobs and was not that happy with it...bean flours do me in

lots of pain...it also needs to be dairy free...soooo whats your favorite all-purpose gluten-free flour and where can I get it..'cause Whole foods had nothing today

thanks and happy turkey day!

I really liked the Orgran's products I tried too. When I tried to go back to the store I got it from, the store was gone, leveled to the ground.

I get both actually... I use them for different things. I like them way better than any of the other all purpse mixes I've tried.

Now for a "baking mix" like Bisquick, I prefer The Gluten Free Pantry's Quick Mix... it works perfect!

Oh No!!! That would suck! Maybe you can order it from amazon .com or something... I wonder... does Scott sell it on Celiac.com at the Glutenfreemall???

hi nini, for baking cookies or pizza crust would you use the regular or self rising?
I only see it to buy online in small batches, around 2 cups each
thanks bunches!!

for cookies I would use regular, for pizza crust, self rising because I do a thin crust without yeast... but if you use yeast you could use the regular. The self rising is a little finer than the regular and it works great for gravies and soups, I use the self rising in muffin and pancake recipes...
