Is almond flour gluten-free?

Yes, it is. Some brands contain flavor coatings with gluten, so it’s always best to check the labels.

Will almond flour rise with baking powder?

Yes, but it will rise less than regular flour (whether gluten-based or gluten-free).

Can I make almond flour from leftover almond pulp?

Yes! Remove excess moisture from the almond pulp by squeezing it through a cheesecloth and then spreading it on parchment paper on a baking tray and baking it at 180F for 2.5 hours, mixing it every 30 minutes. It should easily crumble between your fingers once dried. Once dried, add the pulp to a blender and blitz for about 10 seconds. Almond flour made from almond pulp is much thinner as the milking process strips most of the fat from the pulp. Recipes made with almond flour from almond pulp will likely be more dense and less moist.

Is almond flour keto-friendly?

Yes! Since almonds are permitted on a keto diet, almond flour is keto-friendly.
