How to Mix White Flour & Brown Rice Flour

A sifter such as this one is the best way to mix dry goods.

Brown rice flour is made from rice that has retained the bran layers covering the kernel throughout processing. It has a slightly nuttier flavor than conventional flour, and contains more oil. It is high in protein, B vitamins, iron and fiber, and is good for those with wheat allergies. For those without wheat allergies, brown rice flour can be mixed with any other flour in most baked goods for added protein and other healthy benefits. Does this Spark an idea?

Baked goods made with rice flour may be crumbly. An extra egg or a dash of arrowroot may fix this.
