1 cup all-purpose flour (or whole wheat flour) Use all-purpose flour for standard use or whole wheat flour for a healthier option.
1.5 teaspoons baking powder Leavening agent to help baked goods rise.
0.5 teaspoon salt Enhances flavor.

Clear a clean, flat surface or a mixing bowl to work with, and gather all materials.
Use a dry measuring cup to spoon the flour into the cup without packing it down.
For every cup of flour, add 1 ½ teaspoons of baking powder and ½ teaspoon of salt.
Whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl until there are no lumps and the mixture is uniform and fluffy.

If you’re not using the flour right away, transfer it to an airtight container and label it with the date. Use within three months for best quality.

Can be made gluten-free by substituting with a gluten-free all-purpose blend. Experiment by adding dried herbs or spices for specialty flours.
