Notes

Flour substitutions: I recommend using the exact flours specified in this recipe. However, if you have allergies to these ingredients or cannot access them then you could substitute as follows:

Sweet rice flour. Can be substituted for cassava flour or almond flour.
Oat or sorghum flour. Can be substituted for buckwheat or millet flour.
Tapioca starch. Can be substituted for potato starch or arrowroot powder.

However, I do recommend keeping a total of 4 different flours within the blend to keep it balanced.

Recipes you can use the flour for: You can use the flour in a 1:1 swap with wheat flour or another gluten-free flour blend in the following recipes: Cakes, cookies, crumbles, quick breads, muffins, pastry, stews, sauces.

Recipes you can't use the flour for: recipes which don't have many ingredients and rely on flour to provide all the texture and stability. This includes gluten-free bread / scones / shortbread.

Ingredient measurements: US customary measurements for the ingredients provided are based on a conversion calculator. This recipe was tested with metric measurements and I recommend using a digital scale to weigh ingredients for the most accurate results.
