Although I use it sparingly, Chickpea flour is a personal favourite because I use it to make socca (a wonderful and simple type of grain-free and gluten-free flat bread). However, there are many more flours that can be included in your Food Freedom, such as buckwheat flour, chickpea (AKA garbanzo bean) flour, amaranth flour, banana flour, rice flour, and quinoa flour, to name a few. I’ve restricted the list to include only Paleo and Whole30 options, since that is the main focus of my recipes and how I eat on a day-to-day basis. It’s important to know when to use which flour or you run the risk of ruining an entire dish in terms of taste and texture. I also answer some frequently asked questions that I hope will help you make the most of each ingredient.Įach alternative flour listed here is gluten-free and has its own unique texture, taste and function. In this article, I outline the alternative flours that I think should be in every home cook’s pantry, particularly those who are looking for healthy alternatives to conventional grain flours. The best part is that with Thrive Market you can conveniently order each of these online and have them shipped to you. In addition to almond and coconut flours, you can find cassava flour, arrowroot starch, and tapioca starch, to name a few. When I did manage to track a bag down, it was expensive! It’s amazing to see the variety of alternative flours now available throughout North America. When I first began my health journey back in 2013, it was very difficult to find anything other than almond flour and coconut flour.
