About This Blend

King Arthur Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour is a pre-formulated gluten-free blend, meaning the blend ingredients, starch ratios, and binding agent are already incorporated. You don’t need to add xanthan gum or mix your own flour combination. It’s designed to work as a direct substitute for the wheat flour amounts your recipe calls for.

Built-in binder: This blend already contains a binding agent. Do not add additional xanthan gum or psyllium husk unless a recipe specifically calls for it. Over-binding produces a gummy, rubbery texture.

Yeast compatibility: This blend is not formulated for yeast-leavened baking. For yeast bread, use a dedicated gluten-free bread flour blend (King Arthur Gluten-Free Bread Flour or Caputo Fioreglut are the leading options).

Protein content (2%) and density (148g/cup) data from manufacturer specifications. See methodology for data sources.
