So presumably you can use it for any recipe that calls for salt and baking powder-- just don't put those in.

But because the salt and baking powder-- if you had to add them to regular flour in a recipe-- would account for a teaspoon or so of volume, you might want to add another teaspoon or so of the self-rising flour to make the volume the same as regular flour + baking powder + salt.

(I don't know if that tiny amount of volume would make much difference, of course.)

I think it can be used for breads, cookies, biscuits, any recipe where baking powder would be an ingredient.
I'm not sure about cakes and pies though!
