Allinson's

Is plain flour and all-purpose flour the same thing? In answer, yes and it is a staple baking ingredient in most kitchens.
We love Allinson’s Plain White Flour as it is expertly milled from British wheat. Whilst it doesn’t contain any raising agent, like Self-Raising Flour, it is often combined with baking powder or bicarbonate of soda in a recipe to create a beautiful rise in the oven.
This flour makes a whole host of bakes from scrummy scones to pretty tarts and pastries, producing a light and delicate texture. Also, a handy ingredient to have around when thickening sauces.
