i just wanted to let you all know that baking powder does NOT contain gluten. however, this is the substitute for baking powder and it is still gluten free.

This worked really well in Gluten Free Apple Cinnamon Muffins. We aslo use flax seed egg replacer 104832 and everyone like the muffins. We are gluten, egg, milk, corn, soy.......free

Works wonderfully! Great option for gluten-free and corn-free families!

I have been using this for years because we have corn allergies. Commercial baking powder has corn starch in it. So for 1 tsp baking powder use 1/2 tsp cream of tartar and 1/4 tsp baking soda. For 1 TBS baking powder use 1 1/2 tsp cream of tartar and 3/4 tsp baking soda. WE love this for making baking powder biscuits (that aren't gluten free) they come out very light and lovely.

It works! Had run out of baking powder so it was good to try this substitute.
