What is "gluten-free flour"?
Gluten-free flour is a type of flour that does not contain gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, rye, and their derivatives. It is specially formulated for individuals with gluten sensitivities, wheat allergies, or celiac disease, who need to avoid gluten-containing ingredients. Gluten-free flour is typically made from alternative grains, seeds, nuts, or legumes such as rice, corn, sorghum, quinoa, millet, almonds, chickpeas, or tapioca. These flours may be used alone or in combination to create gluten-free flour blends that mimic the texture and performance of traditional wheat flour in baking and cooking.
Example
I mixed gluten-free flour with a variety of spices to create a flavorful coating for my crispy gluten-free fried chicken.
They hosted a brunch and prepared gluten-free pancakes using a blend of gluten-free flours.
