This is vanilla yogurt muffins that I tried using homemade cake flour.

Method:

Use whenever required.

Always wonders wats cake flour now I know:-) simple and easy
what do you have to omit from a recipe if we are using cake flour?
Flour should be replaced.Will be posting a muffin recipe soon…
Good one, for a long time I wonder what is cake flour…. I thought may be for maida they use this term, now u clarified that doubt. Very easy and nice to know new thing.
# Whether we can do the same with wheat flour? Is it possible? Just an idea to reduce maida, any other flour can be replaced
I am really not sure whether it will work with wheat flour, you can try and see
Could you please tell the measurements of maida in grams
Will update it when I measure it in gms
Any replacement for maida?
I am not sure of replacements here

Can we use this home made cake flour for any cake recipes that ask for APF?
No all purpose flour is different from cake flour I think
Sorry for asking again Sharmilee
If a particular recipe uses 1 cup APF then can we use this(above mentioned) home made cake flour (1 cup) instead of that particular recipe's 1 cup APF?
No cake flour is different from all purpose flour.All purpose flour is just plain flour(maida) as I believe so cant be replaced for cake flour
Ok Thank u Sharmilee..
Hi… can i add chocolate chips,or blue berry in this? If can what is the measurement?
-Ms.Banu-
For 1 cup you can add about 1/4 cup
Hello, Are you using cornflour or cornstarch for the cake flour ? Most of the cake flour recipes that I have read say use cornstarch. Could you please clarify.
I used cornflour…
