Flour substitutes

Flour Substitutes

 
If you are like me and like to make your own Cakes, pie's etc,
 
You can try using your own recipes but substitute wheat flour with these flours:
 
Almond meal - this can be used in desserts, cakes and biscuits.
Buckwheat Flour - is especially good in making bread.
Corn Flour - is great as a thickener for gravies etc.
Millet - this can be used like a porridge for breakfast.
Potato Flour - this is used in a lot of Chinese recipes, also good for pancakes, waffles and as a thickener.
Rice Flour - has multiple uses, I like to make shortbread with this.
Soya Flour - is generally used with another wheat flour substitute to make a lighter product.
Tapioca Flour - A sweeter flavour mainly used for deserts etc.
 
Also in stead of bread crumbs you can get rice crumbs or you can even use your GF bread, either way it tastes great.
 
I do hope you are finding this information interesting.
