Great for cakes and cookies

Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2019

One of the BAD things about being gluten free is that you basically have to re-learn baking. I've had to tweak all my recipes and go through MANY fails on cakes and cookies that were once tried and true. One of the things I've learned is that it's imperative to latch onto a brand of gluten free flour when you cook.
If you don't use a single brand for a single recipe, then your results will vary every time.
I've come to use Betty Crocker's Gluten free flour blend as a staple for the cookies and cakes I make. I over looked this brand at first because it was Betty Crocker which I associated with those horrible cake mixes. I tried other, what should I call them, designer blends. But cost drove me to Betty Crocker, and now I use this all the time. Highly recommended.
(If anyone is interested, I use Bob's Red Mill for heavier recipes such as dumplings for example)

Baking disaster!

Reviewed in the United States on January 31, 2016

I purchased a carton of 6 boxes and used 2 of them, along with many expensive ingredients, to make 2 separate batches of a recipe I have made before with great success. The first was a total disaster and I thought I had somehow made a huge mistake . Not true. The next day I tried anew, meticulously following the recipe I trusted ( from experience). Same effect. It didn't bake through even with extra time allowed. Tested done each time. As it cooled it continued to sink in on itself and when I cut into it, the insides were a solid but wet mess. Be warned! This is like nothing I have experienced in 15 years of GF baking.

Betty Crocker website has GF Recipes!

I bought a six pack of these because we are a gluten free family (not by choice) even two years after adopting our dog he was diagnosed with a gluten intolerance...

Better Crocker's website has tons of recipes for gluten free lifestyle and many of them use this product. For St. Patrick's day, our daughter made the Irish Soda Bread recipe and it was a winner!

For gluten free recipes, especially, I would always recommend that you use the flour blend it was designed for to give you a baseline. Once you know a recipe you can try a different flour blend and compare notes, but if you are just starting out, I would not recommend substitutions!

Next up, GF Angel Food Cake... Can't wait!

hello,
with the advent of public knowledge of gluten in food products and how much it affects certain people, we were on the look out for gluten free products. this betty crocker gluten free flour blend is good for many forms of cooking to meet just that need. the rice flour blend works well as a cooking product. it may not meet the needs of non-gluten free people's diets, but at least the ones affected by gluten in most food products will not get ill after eating. gluten free is a good thing.

So far, so good. Works as expected.

So far, so good. I've used this to make pancakes, banana bread, and for frying and they've all come out well. The real test will come when I make a regular cake, and I'll be using this to make all my baked goods come the holiday season. I'll update when I make more.
I would only suggest larger boxes. I used an entire box to make 2 loaves of banana bread. It's inexpensive compared to the Bob's Red Mill 1 to 1 GF mix I used to buy.

Great GF flour!

This Betty Crocker GF flour and also the King Arthur AP GF flour are my go-to flours. I've tried a couple other GF flours (Bob's Red Mill and Pamela's), but they don't seem to give as good a result in my baking. This Betty Crocker flour is especially good in cookies, and also works well in cupcakes usually. Would definitely recommend.

This was bought for my mother who follows a gluten free diet. She couldn't find it in stores, so I said - let's try Amazon! good price and well packaged, it's recommended if you're looking for a good rice flour blend.

Due to a wheat allergy I need to buy alternative ingredients.

This is one of the better of the alternatives to wheat flour I have found. Great for making cookies. I changed my recipes and the taste of my homemade cookies actually improved over the standard wheat flour.
