Almond flour gives the most wonderful texture and taste to baked goods! These are 12 of our favorite recipes that everyone will love.
Have you ever bought a bag of almond flour for a recipe and are unsure what to do with the rest? We've got tons of inspiration for you! Almond flour gives a wonderful texture and taste to baked goods.
What is almond flour exactly? It's simply finely ground, blanched almonds. Not to be confused with almond meal, which is also made from ground almonds, but almond meal is coarser as it includes the brown skin of the almonds.
Almond flour is available at most larger grocery stores, often in the area with other specialty flour. Bob's Red Mill and King Arthur are common brands. I find that it can be quite pricey at my regular grocery store and is much more reasonably priced at big box stores like Sam's Club and Costco. It's also more reasonable when purchased online. Give these recipes a try, we think you'll love them!

and I will declare Your greatness.
Psalm 145:4-6
