Walnut Meal/Flour
|
Walnut meal/flour comes from finely ground walnuts. Walnuts resemble miniature brains and for good reason since they are considered to be brain food. Walnut flour is great to combine with other gluten-free flours and will add some great nutrients to your dishes.
Uses: Biscuits, breads, cakes, cookies, muffins, pancakes Key Nutrients: Protein, fiber, vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin K, B-vitamins, calcium, copper, iron, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, selenium, zinc How To Make Your Own: Take raw walnuts, place in high output blender, food processor, or coffee grinder and grind until fine. Keep a close eye on it because if you blend too long it will turn into cashew butter. You may have clumps that you can separate with your fingers. |
