Baking Powder Substitutions

Tonight I was making various baking mixes for when we go camping, and I ran out of Baking Powder. Did you know that chocolate and baking soda together is a suitable substitution? I never knew that before!

Here is a list of substitutions for Baking Powder (1 tsp)-

1/4 tsp baking soda with one of the following:
  • 1/2 tsp cream of tartar
  • at least 1/2 cup sour milk, buttermilk or yogurt
  • 1/2 cup applesauce, mashed bananas or tart jam
  • 1/2 tblsp vinegar or lemon juice plus sweet milk to make 1/2 cup
  • 1/4-1/2 cup molasses
  • 2 oz chocolate
