Gluten-free Baking Essentials
Baking is tricky, you may have the right measurements and the right recipe yet the result doesn’t come out satisfactory. Baking with gluten-free flour can be challenging, since I have been cooking and baking gluten-free for almost 6 years now, I have shortlisted some items that work well.
So if you are new to gluten-free then this article will make your gluten-free baking journey less challenging. I am listing down some of my favourite items along with some gadgets, mats, trays that I have collected over the years to help me with my gluten-free baking. I recommend that you start small and slow but over the years buy a few things that will help you hugely in the kitchen.
Flours you should keep in your pantry at all times:
Coconut flour from Bob’s
Wheafree Maida Replacer
All-purpose flour
Tapioca Flour
Wheafree bread flour
Corn flour
Baking Powder
Baking Soda
Cocoa Powder
Active Yeast
Vanilla
Vanilla Pod (for deeper flavour)
Brown Sugar with vanilla
Light Brown Sugar plain
Flaky salt
Xanthum gum

Thanks for doing this post. I struggle a lot when it comes to picking up items for baking, some gluten-free flours are so bad in quality that when I bake cakes with them the cakes come out starchy. I will buy some items from your list and will use them in baking for sure.
Hahahah, Alpa we all have been there, i am not a very confident baker myself, these flours will help you get the flavours right.
My search for the best GF maida is over, I took the suggestion from you and ordered Josef Marc flour and it turned out to be the best flour I have ever used. Suggest more brands in sauces and spices plz.
Wow, glad you liked it.
