    Baking powder is a key ingredient in many cake, cookie and bread recipes; but that doesn't mean you have to pay someone else to make it. Here's how to make your own baking powder:

    Prep Time: 2 minutes

    Total Time: 2 minutes

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

    Preparation:


    Mix the baking soda and cream of tartar together until well combined. Use immediately.

    Yield: One tablespoon of baking powder.

    To store baking powder: Add a teaspoon of corn starch to the mixture, and stir. This will absorb any moisture from the air, and prevent the baking powder from reacting before you need it. Store in an air-tight container.
