Product Overview

Almond flour is ideal for baking cakes, pancakes, and biscuits that can be enjoyed by everyone, and especially people who follow a paleo or gluten-free diet.

The almonds’ natural oils give cakes baked with Pearls Of Samarkand White Almond Flour a deliciously moist texture and a subtle aromatic flavour. 

Almond flour is also perfect to give a nutty taste to savoury cooking, such as gluten-free bread, or for binding together vegan nut roasts and vegan meatballs.

This white almond flour is made from 100% organic Fairtrade Italian almonds grown in Sicily. Once blanched, the almonds are ground into a fine powder. The powder is sifted both mechanically and electronically to ensure it has a smooth, fine texture. 

As a great source of protein, vitamin E, and antioxidants, almond flour is a healthy alternative to wheat flour.

Ingredients

100% Organic blanched almonds

Frequently Asked Questions

How is baking with almond flour different from baking with wheat flour?

Almond flour provides baked goods with a subtle sweetness that works in both savoury and sweet food. It also makes baked goods last longer due to the natural oil in the almonds.
