Spelt wheat (organic) - 2 pounds

A versatile flour with flavor notes most pronounced in savory recipes.

A heritage variety of wheat, spelt wheat is known for its rich nutty flavor, and is found by some to be more easily digestible than modern wheat. This spring planted Spelt is high in protein and quite adaptable to a wide range of recipes. Use this flour in pastries, cakes, cookies, and as a component of pizza dough and breads. Freshly milled spelt flour is fine with bran flaking off in larger pieces – if you wish to remove these, you may sift them out further (though note that the bran is the component of a wheat seed with the most fiber).

Preparation & Storage:

Use our freshly milled 100% whole wheat flour in any recipe you desire that calls for flour. You may elect to sub anywhere from 25-100% of the flour for whole wheat flour, depending on the recipe and the desired texture of the finished product.

In most cases, a greater portion of freshly milled flour will yield a more dense end product. But not always! You are welcome to experiment and share your feedback. (For example, 100% of the flour in our muffins is whole wheat flour while we use a 50/50 mix of bread flour and whole wheat in our bread, given “spring” and “airiness” are more desirable qualities in bread.)

Freshly milled flour GOES BAD! Refrigerate or freeze for best quality.
