While I was growing up, my mom would make BIG batches of this gluten free all purpose flour mix. She would toss this recipe into a big tupperware container and store in the freezer. So whenever one of her four children got the hankering for some freshly baked treats, it was easy to grab any ol' cookbook (gluten free or not) and follow a recipe to delicious ends.
To make life simple, when there some down time, I make a batch of this mix so that next time I have a craving for some freshly baked treats, I can toss together any recipe I want! If you are not close to a store that provides these ingredients, online outlets like Authentic Foods and Bob's Red Mill will be able to fill the bulk of your order for this recipe, the rest should be easily found in your standard grocery store.
As the title of this recipe infers, this is great for making breads, but it is also excellent as an all purpose flour mix.
