"Namaste when I can find it! King Arthur is a close second and nothing else compares to those two"
"Namaste has been great for us. My only gripe is that it can be slightly thick for pancake batter so it doesn’t spread as nice."
"We have been using Namaste brand lately."
"I like Namaste's Perfect Flour Blend--I haven't tried it for cookies or cakes yet, but it's done quite well in pancakes and zucchini bread."
