How do I make a “baking powder” substitute in a pinch

Question

Every once in while we run out of "Baking powder".

What would be a good receipt for a substitute that you have used that works well.

Thanks!!

Answer

On the off-chance that you have no baking powder, but you do have baking soda and cream of tartar, you can make your own baking powder:

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
  • 1 teaspoon corn starch (optional)

Mix it all together and use it immediately.
