Baking ingredients on white concrete background. Flat lay composition of ingredients for making a cake, pastry or cookies

As satisfying as the first bite (or two, or three) of a freshly baked cookie can be, almost all of the joy I get from sinking my teeth into a delicious baked good actually comes from collecting all of the necessary ingredients. Besides filling my home with the mouthwatering smell of homemade treats, the act of baking tried-and-true recipes, as well as challenging myself to try new ones, increases my level of confidence as a baker. However, there have been times when I may have forgotten an ingredient or two, leading me to frantically try to improvise something so I can get the job done.

To help you avoid the panic that comes with baking a dessert only to realize you're out of milk or eggs, I've compiled a list of a variety of baking substitutes. From cake-flour and yogurt substitutes to baking powder and buttermilk alternatives, you'll definitely want to bookmark this list for any future baking ordeals (I know I will). To make this list all the more sweeter, I even included exact measurements and ratios to make sure your treat comes out perfectly.

Cake-Flour Substitute

Cornstarch: For 1 cup cake flour, scoop 1 level cup all-purpose flour, remove 2 tablespoons, and replace with 2 tablespoons cornstarch or arrowroot starch. Make sure the flour and cornstarch are well-combined before using.

Bread-Flour Substitute
