Any cookie recipes that call for self rising flour?

Question

I'm trying to use up the last couple cups of self rising flour I have. I usually only buy a bag around the holidays for different cakes and things that I do.

Do you have any simple cookie recipes using this?

Answer 1

Generally you can use it in any cookie recipe that calls for flour, salt and leavening(baking soda or baking powder). Just substitute it cup for cup for the all-purpose flour and then leave out the added salt and leavening. The trick is to find cookie recipes that take the exact amount of flour you have!

Answer 2

With only a couple of cups, how about trying a recipe? I have used self-rising flour (I live on a secluded farm, far away from stores!) in a few occasions and things have turned out fine. I think I used it in scratch chocolate chip cookies. I believe I omitted the baking powder in hopes of "righting" the wrong flour.
Cheers

I strongly recommend you to get the Paleo Recipe Book ( watch the video presentation here: http://www.paleobook.tv ) It has over 370 healthy Paleo recipes that are very easy and fast to cook, not to mention they are incredibly delicious. The book is based upon everyday, modern foods that mimic the food groups eaten during prehistoric times.

Paleo comes from Paleolithic. Paleolithic Era was a period of about 2.5 million years duration that ended around 10,000 years ago with the development of agriculture. Food cultivation and preparation greatly declined in quality after the Paleolithic Age, with the advent of agriculture and domestication of animals and that humans have not evolved to properly digest new foods such as grain and dairy, much less the highly-processed and high-calorie processed foods that are so readily available and cheap, and this has led to modern-day problems such as obesity, heart disease, diabetes etc.

You should enjoy a longer, healthier and more active life, stop eating processed foods!
