Can anyone please tell me if there is a Spanish equivalent of Self Raising flour

Yes there is but you will have to search for it.

I can't remember the exact name but is probably going to be something like Harina de Trigo con levadura quimico.

It comes in the normal sized bags. It seems to be a recent addition to the range of flours available.

Whatever the translation turns out to be, don't forget that the flour you get here is a lot stronger than that in the UK.

True, that's why it makes good bread!

Harina con levadura is what you want..

In Mercadona, it's "harina por bizcochos" (sponge cake)

Thank you to all.

I will look for both Levadura and Bizchocos. Not that I bake all that often

Why not use plain flour? If you didn't know, self-raising flour is just plain flour with baking powder and some salt added. Baking powder is easy to find and Google will show you the measurements.

I will often be found covered in flour in the kitchen making a variety of biscuits, bread and cakes and have found that the bog standard flour at roughly 35 cents a bag does the lot. As others have said a bit of raising agent and off you go. Have fun...
