No baking soda.. GRRR

Tried using baking powder and tripling the amount asked for when asking for baking soda. (DH's idea) .. well, the muffins didnt rise like they were suppose to  

any other ideas?
or applesauce or brown sugar cookie/bar recipe's that dont call for baking soda?

Self rising flour?

Quoting zombie.:" Self rising flour?"

lol i have normal flour. just really want to bake something... with apple sauce in it. like my muffins last night but no baking soda   and dont feel like going to the store . were going on wednesday.. but i cant wait until then lol

Was there salt in your recipe?

Quoting Danielle: Jack&Basil'sMom:" Was there salt in your recipe?"

yea. but i didnt use any salt because i added more baking powder.

lol you can't just heap on baking powder like that. Leavening agents have to work together.

Everywhere sells baking soda. Do you have a corner store or Rite aid/cvs near by?

i didnt HEAP on baking powder. we looked it up and found lots of sites and people saying its 3 times as strong as baking soda.. bla bla bla. and to just add 3ts of baking powder rather than 1ts or soda.

i know everywhere sells it btw. .. the whole point is.. im LAZY and dont feel like going out today when were going out wednesday lol. Were making sugar cookies later for santa (out of a package) maaaaybe that will cure my baking craving lol

I found this recipe, but dont have or want to add nuts to it... anything else we could add? no chocolate chips either...
