Bob's Red Mill - Baking Flour Paleo - 16 Oz

I have a gluten allergy and I'm a diabetic. this product helos me fullfill my cravings

I've had to go completely grain free so this paleo flour is a great replacement for flours made from grains and I have always liked the Bob's Red Mill brand as they have quality products.

I use the 1:1 ratio when baking and so far is a wonderful substitute for 'regular' white flour.

smooth taste, not grainy, pulls together good but not great

This product works perfectly as a 1:1 flour substitute in every single thing I've tried it in: baking any recipe for cakes, brownies, cookies, breads, fritters, etc as well as a thickener to make gravy or cheese sauce. I've served it to people without telling then that what they're eating is gluten free and when I do tell them it's always the same reaction: "You have to be kidding me, I would never have known!" I cannot medically have grains anymore so this flour mix has made my life so much more enjoyable and easy, there's nothing I can't have now since this flour works in everything I want to make. I have tried so many other gluten free flour substitutes but this one is the absolute top of the heap - NOTHING ELSE COMPARES - NOTHING ELSE EVEN COMES CLOSE. For those of us who cannot have any grains at all this is the product to make your life fun and tasty again!

I almost stopped baking because carbs and my aging body aren't getting along very well. However, by substituting Bob's Paleo mix (and usually cutting the liquid a bit while increasing the leavening a bit), I get delicious meals and desserts (pizza, biscuits, pancakes, cookies, and even a dutch baby) without the food coma! Now, I'm having fun in the kitchen again!

Excellent but a bit pricey!

I'm not paleo, but I was looking for a decent baking flour that was lectin-free. (I am an avid fan of Bob's 1:1 gluten-free baking flour, but there are a couple of ingredients in there that can cause problems if I eat them too often.) Bob's Paleo Baking flour comes as close as anything I've found yet. It does contain Almond Flour and Coconut Flour, which can be a bit tricky to bake with, so it's not perfect. Or maybe I haven't mastered the techniques yet. One of the most common recipes I make is the pancake recipe on the back of the bag. Flat things tend to bake easier with the two aforementioned flours. However, instead of making them on the stove--which either burns them or leaves the gooey inside--I bake them on parchment paper in a 375 degree oven. I'll bake them for 7 minutes on one side, then flip them over and bake for another five minutes on the other. In my oven, I find the top rack works best. For those concerned about a coconut taste, there really isn't one. If anything, I'd say there's more of a nutty, almond taste to the flour, without being quite as sweet.

I didnt do my research on this product well. Its Almond flour which I already have. Its a lot more expensive with Paleo in the title.

There was a slit in the bag that Bob's RedMill paleo baking flour came in.
