Almond Flour

Almond flour or ground almond is one of the most common grain- and gluten-free flours. It's made from ground, blanched almonds, which means the skin has been removed. One cup of almond flour contains about 90 almonds and has a nutty flavor. It's commonly used in baked goods and can be a grain-free alternative to breadcrumbs.

It had a slightly sweet nutty flavour and aroma, and a finer texture than whole almond meal. This Blanched Almond Meal is preservative-free, non-GMO and has nothing artificial added. Almond Meal can be used in savoury and sweet dishes.

Baking with Almond Flour: Tips for Success

1. Measure Accurately: Almond flour can be denser than wheat flour, so ensure accurate measurements for the best results.

2. Combine with Other Flours: For certain recipes, like bread, it's often best to combine almond flour with other gluten-free flours like coconut or tapioca flour.

3. Use Binders: Almond flour lacks the binding properties of gluten, so you may need to add a binder like xanthan gum or eggs to your recipes.

4. Adjust Liquid: Almond flour absorbs more moisture than wheat flour, so be prepared to adjust the liquid content in your recipes accordingly.

5. Experiment and Learn: Baking with almond flour may require some trial and error. Don't be discouraged; experimenting is part of the fun!
