Description: Raw blanched whole almonds ground into flour.
For those of you who are gluten sensitive or know someone who is, almond flour is a great alternative you can use to make cookies, muffins, pancakes, cakes, pie crusts, pizza crust and so much more. Gluten, which is a protein found in wheat, rye, and barley is a hard protein for most people to digest. What's great about almond flour is it gives you a lot of protein which helps balance your blood sugar levels - just don't eat too much b/c nuts are high in fat, but a good fat. All my friends that try my gluten-free (made with almond flour) baked goods - love 'em.
So, try almond flour the next time you make muffins. There are great gluten-free recipe books out there.
Happy cooking!
