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.
