Baking powder is a combination of potassium bitartrate (cream of tartar) and sodium bicarbonate (baking soda). Usually cornstarch is added to prevent clumping.

Not only is making your own baking powder cheap and easy, it’s also free of unnecessary additives and aluminum free.

ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
  • 1 teaspoon corn starch (optional)

instructions

  1. Mix the baking soda and cream of Tartar together until well combined.
  2. Use Immediately
  3. If you plan to store your baking powder, add cornstarch to prevent clumping. Store in air tight container.
