What it is

Organic navy bean flour is a fine powder made from dried, ground navy beans that have been grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. It is a plant-based ingredient, offering a neutral flavor profile.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use navy bean flour as a gluten-free alternative to wheat flour in various products. It can add protein and fiber, and improve the texture of baked goods, snack bars, and other processed foods.

Health notes

Navy bean flour is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. As a legume flour, it is a source of dietary fiber and plant-based protein. There are no known controversies regarding its safety at typical intake levels, and it is not typically evaluated by bodies like JECFA or EFSA as it is a whole food ingredient rather than an additive.

Allergen info

Navy bean flour is derived from navy beans, which are legumes. Legumes are not considered one of the nine major food allergens identified by the FDA. It is naturally gluten-free.
