Nut Flour Blend

A blend of flours made from various nuts, such as almonds, walnuts, or pecans. These nuts are typically blanched, ground, and sometimes sifted to create a fine powder, offering a gluten-free alternative to traditional grain flours.

Nut flours are used to add flavor, texture, and nutritional value to baked goods like cookies, muffins, and pastries. They can also act as a binder and contribute to a richer mouthfeel, often found in gluten-free and low-carbohydrate products.

Nut flour blends are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as food ingredients. They are a source of healthy fats, protein, and fiber. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated various nuts and their components, generally finding them safe for consumption. While nuts are nutritious, they are also calorie-dense, and excessive intake could contribute to weight gain.
