Using self-raising flour instead of plain.

Hallo Lindsey.
I am making a chocolate and beetroot cake but I only have self raising flour, haven't managed to buy plain, will this work?
Thank you

Hello,
Presumably the recipe that you are following uses plain flour and baking power?
It depends on how much baking powder to plain flour the recipe requires but generally yes you could use self-raising flour and most likely omit the baking powder.
Best wishes
