unlike wheat all-purpose flour, a gluten-free “all-purpose” version is a mix of flours. basically, some of the flours are grains and some are starches. because wheat flour naturally contains both, you need both in a gluten-free mix. also, different flours impart different characteristics, densities, and flavors to the final product. (in a future post, i’ll give some more information about the specific flours and what they lend to a mix.) my gluten-free all-purpose flour is a mix of 50% grain and 50% starch.

ok… important info… 1 cup of wheat all-purpose flour equals approximately 140 grams (5 ounces). therefore, to substitute a gluten-free mix of flours, measure out 140 grams and you have your equivalent.
