        Hi Pauline,
        You can certainly use all purpose flour for this recipe, just add a teaspoon of baking powder per cup of flour. I hope this helps xx

      Yes!!! Thank you so much! I tried this last night and it was delish! My husband really enjoyed it and that’s quite rare. The dishes were actually minimal which I loved, some one pot recipes are a massive mess to get to the one pot part. Thanks again!
