Have you ever got all of your cake ingredients out and realized you did not have any cake flour that one specific recipe? Well, I have the most simple recipe for you and it will work just as well.
I came across this recipe many years ago, and I can not take credit for this recipe. I hated spending so much for cake flour so I went on a mission to find an alternative. This is that recipe. I am so excited to share it with you.
Let’s get started.
INGREDIENTS:
1 C. flour (125g)
2 TBSP cornstarch
DIRECTIONS:
- Per every 1 cup of flour, remove 2 tbsp of flour from that cup and replace it with 2 tbsp of cornstarch.
- Place in a sifter and sift 5 to 6 times to incorporate it well.
- Use as you would cake flour in any of the recipes that call for cake flour.
- No you can not use self rising.
- No you can not use anything other than cornstarch.
- be sure to sift this mixture at least 5 times to ensure the cornstarch gets well incorporated into the flour.
- Keep track of how many cups you have and replace 2 tbsp flour per cup and replace with 2 tbsp cornstarch. This way if you make a big batch of cake flour you don’t lose track of your cups of flour to cornstarch ratio.
- Keep in an a airtight container as you would regular flour.

Hello Everyone!
Thank you so much for stopping by. Let me tell you a little bit about me. I am a mom of two, a stepmom of 1, two wild and silly pups, and I have the best husband in the world. I also have a love of cooking and baking. I am always in the kitchen finding new recipes to try, recreating old family recipes, and reminiscing about the old ways. I am vintage at heart and love all things old and cast iron. I love spending time with the family and pups and just going where life takes us.
I created my blog a few years ago with my youtube channel because I thought that If I shared a recipe, then people just might like to see just how the recipe is put together. I share all of my family recipes along with today's recipes. Whether it is old-fashioned recipes, sourdough, einkorn, desserts, sheet pan meals, or even crockpot meals, they are all absolutely delicious.
I spend hours, if not days, creating and dabbling with recipes to make sure they are the best for you and your family. All of my recipes are family tested and family-approved before they are ever posted to my blog or youtube channel.
Every now and again I will share some behind-the-scenes fun and chaos of our creations and family adventures. I hope you all stick around and join us here at The Southern Rustic and see what we cook up in my kitchen. You can find all of my social media information in the Contact/Donate OR the Social Media Accounts tab on my home page. There I have listed my Instagram pages, YouTube channel, Email, and other information so you can easily find everything in one place.
I hope that you all have a wonderful, wonderful day and I will see you soon.
Sam
