In reply to Jody. Hi Jody, The rule of thumb is usually 5 mL (1 teaspoon) baking powder per cup of flour when a recipe doesn't include much acidity (like a vanilla cake batter made with milk) or 1.25 mL (1/4 teaspoon) baking soda per cup of flour when there are acidic ingredients present (like a vanilla cake batter made with buttermilk). The amount of leavening will vary depending on what you are making (for example a recipe with heavier ingredients, like a fruitcake or a banana bread, may need more leavening than a regular plain vanilla cake). I hope that helps!

Wow. It’s as if I exist in a parallel universe named Canada. I’m Janice, I have a BS in Chemistry (though in this version, I stopped school much earlier), and I also choose to use my superhero powers for cooking/baking as well! Lovely to meet you, thank you so much for this article, your site, and everything you do.

I feel like a light has been shed on a dark corner! Home cooks are seldom provided with these formulas, we just get recipes and directions, and are left scratching our heads when things go wrong. This will change how I look at baking forever!
