Baking Powder - Make it Yourself

I've had this recipe for a LONG time - since my high school Home Ec days. While I tend to like the convenience of reaching for the can of Baking Powder on the shelf, this recipe is aluminum FREE and probably healthier than many of the store bought brands.

This simple recipe may save you a trip to the store at 10 PM or it may become a staple in your pantry.

Mix together and store - may be made in larger batches with the same ratio.
 
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon cornstarch
