There's a recipe on the back of the package for rice flour muffins - I follow it to make the best banana-blueberry muffins that are light and fluffy - just as good as wheat! I usually mix the white rice flour with equal parts brown rice flour, and instead of 1/2 cup fruit juice, I use 3 overly ripe bananas - the recipe hasn't failed me yet! Even better: they freeze really well, so I can make a double batch and pop them into the freezer for later.

I've also tried the pie crust recipe - it's OK - instead of rolling it out and trying to get it into the pie pan (it breaks apart too much) I just mix into a ball and smoosh it into the pie pan.

Bob's White Rice Flour is my most-used gluten-free flour. I use it for baking and also as a thickener for soups and gravies. When I use it to make cakes, I mix it with corn starch and my cakes are unfailingly light and moist. I use so much of Bob's white rice Flour that I decided to save money on it by subscribing to regular shipments in bulk. Thank you, Amazon, for being there for the gluten-intolerant!

I use this flour to bake bread for my grandson who is on a gluten free diet. I like the fact that is has no additives and that it is organic. Can't beat the price!

Gluten-Free Flour Tortillas
MAKES 6-8 TORTILLAS

1 cup white rice flour
1/3 cup potato starch
1/3 cup tapioca flour
1/3 cup fava bean flour
2 tsps xanthan gum
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp sugar
1 1/4 tsp salt
2 TBs vegetable or other shortening
3/4 to 1 cup warm water

Combine all of the dry ingredients, then cut in or work in the shortening using a pastry blender or two knives or your hand.
Add the warm water, starting with 3/4 cup and mix well.
Continue to add water until a soft, cohesive dough is formed.
Heat a comal, tapa or griddle to medium heat. Then, form a ball of dough into a flattened disk, cupping the outside edges a bit to form a round.
Using a bollilo or rolling pin, roll into a round disk about 1/8 inch thick and about 8 inches in diameter or to your preference.
Bake one at a time on a hot griddle until the surface bubbles. Turn only once, the first side should have brown flecks.
Bake until the second side has slightly browned - should brown in a very short time.
Keep warm in a tortilla keeper or wrapped in a cloth until served.
Note: Will freeze in a sealed plastic bag for up to three months.

While this rice flour isn't as fine as some, it's fine enough for most cooking. At Christmas time I used it to make half a dozen different types of gluten-free cookies that family members not on a gluten-free diet said they couldn't tell had been made with rice flour - no grittiness at all.

Bought this for my gluten free baking. works well. nice if you want to go organic, as the organic version isn't readily available in stores.

This flour is a good substitute for wheat when baking cornbread, muffins, etc. for the gluten sensitive or otherwise. It comes in a nice sturdy box, and I like the cellophane packaging.

My having to give up gluten has been a challenge, especially finding GF replacements for baked goods at a reasonable price. I can now make my own using a combination of Bob's white rice flour along with other GF ingredients. I've made cookies, bread, and muffins and they turn out great. I don't feel so deprived now that I've discovered Bob's products at a great price.

I have to buy all gluten free flours to make all gluten free goodies !

Money saver buy purchasing from Amazon as you get free shipping if you spend

lock storage containers for all of my gluten free items and they are the best !
Good luck and happy baking !

I love Bob's Red Mill Organic White Rice Flour. It is very finely ground and does not taste gritty like some other brands. It makes great baked good, pie crusts, etc. I use it in my favorite gluten free flour mix.
