Baking powder/self-raising flour
Is it possible to use baking powder to substitute self-raising flour with normal flour instead?
If so, how much would be needed? A rough ratio of?
Thanks!

i do it all the time
i prefer it to using self raising flour
i use 1 tsp baking powder to 1 cup of flour.
i find self raising flour to be a bit unpleasant.
and i get a much better texture and taste to anything i bake using this ratio

The ratio between plain flour and baking powder are 225g flour = 2 tsp baking powder.
Sift flour and baking powder 2 to 3 times before use.

If you're making scones add a wee bit extra - 225g flour 21/2 tsp baking powder
