{"product_id":"organic-almond-flour-500g-1","title":"Organic Almond Flour 500g","description":"\u003cp\u003eAlmond flour is the finest form of ground almond — cold-milled from blanched almonds into a very fine, consistent powder that produces smooth, delicate results in baking. This certified organic defatted almond flour from \u003cstrong\u003eJust Natural Organic\u003c\/strong\u003e has had a portion of its oil removed during processing, resulting in a lighter, drier flour with a lower fat content and a finer texture — the form preferred for French macarons, light almond cakes, and applications where a very smooth, non-greasy result is needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is naturally gluten-free, high in \u003cstrong\u003eprotein\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003efibre\u003c\/strong\u003e, and lower in fat than standard ground almonds.

Available in 500g.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse in French macarons (the essential dry ingredient). Make light almond sponges and financiers. Use in grain-free pancakes and waffles. Substitute 25–50% of wheat flour in most cake recipes for added protein and moisture. Make gluten-free shortbread and biscuits. Use as a coating for chicken, fish, or vegetables instead of breadcrumbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecipe idea — French Macarons:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sift 125g organic almond flour with 125g icing sugar — discard any lumps. Whisk 2 egg whites to stiff peaks with 30g caster sugar, adding food colouring if desired. Fold in the almond mixture in three stages until the batter flows like lava. Pipe onto lined baking sheets, tap to release air bubbles, and leave to dry for 30–60 minutes until a skin forms. Bake at 150°C for 12–14 minutes. Cool completely before sandwiching with ganache or buttercream. The finest almond flour makes all the difference here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eNutritional Values per 100g\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEnergy\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1644 kJ \/ 393 kcal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFat\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e21g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOf Which Saturates\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.6g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCarbohydrates\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e23g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOf Which Sugars\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFibre\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e14g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProtein\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e33g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSalt\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.01g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey nutrients:\u003c\/strong\u003e Higher protein (33g\/100g) and fibre (14g\/100g) than standard ground almonds due to partial defatting.

This defatted almond flour has had some oil removed during pressing, reducing fat to around 21g\/100g. The result is a drier, finer, lighter flour that performs better in macarons, meringue-based recipes, and light cakes where extra oil would cause greasiness. The higher protein content (33g vs 21g) is also notable for high-protein baking applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use this in place of regular ground almonds?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn most cases yes, but results will differ slightly — the reduced fat content produces drier, lighter baked goods. In a moist cake like a flourless chocolate cake, standard ground almonds may be preferable. For macarons and light pastry work, this defatted flour gives superior results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this suitable for keto\/low-carb baking?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes — with only 23g carbohydrates per 100g (mostly fibre), this flour is a very popular choice in ketogenic and low-carbohydrate baking as a wheat flour substitute.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre these gluten-free?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes — naturally gluten-free. Suitable for coeliac disease sufferers. Contains tree nuts (almonds). Packed in a facility handling gluten-containing grains.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow should I store almond flour?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStore in a cool, dry, airtight container. Refrigerating after opening extends freshness and prevents oxidation of the residual oils. Use within 3–4 months of opening for best quality.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Just Natural Organic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49207177412860,"sku":"JNO7831","price":13.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/4683\/9207\/files\/JN291_large_8b9d752b-87ea-47f6-bcd2-50ff73265ef8.jpg?v=1781726142","url":"https:\/\/econaturalproducts.co.uk\/products\/organic-almond-flour-500g-1","provider":"Eco Natural Products","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
