Guest guest Posted November 30, 2004 Report Share Posted November 30, 2004 Tree & Nina Is this correct? : 1 tablespoon soy flour+ 1 tablespoon water = 1 egg? What is a good substitute for baking powder? Baking powder contains aluminum which is associated with alzheimers disease.

Guest guest Posted November 30, 2004 Report Share Posted November 30, 2004 >>>What is a good substitute for baking powder? Baking powder contains aluminum which is associated with alzheimers disease. There are several brands of baking powder on the market that do not contain aluminum. Check with your local health food store for suggestions on brands available.

I always forget the name though because I can't get it here in Canada. I know Pamela's uses it for their GF cookies. Shoot .... BL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 30, 2004 Report Share Posted November 30, 2004 http://www.clabbergirl.com/prod_rumford.htm As an all-phosphate baking powder, Rumford Baking Powder does not contain any aluminum. This property makes it somewhat faster acting than typical double-acting baking powders. You'll still see a boost of leavening in the oven, but most of the reaction occurs in the mixing bowl. While this makes a more delicate crumb structure in the finished product, do not dawdle. You've got to work quickly for best results.
