Almond flour is a natural ingredient obtained from finely ground almonds, without shells and without skin. It is commonly used in cooking for gluten-free alternatives, providing a smooth texture and a slightly sweet, nutty flavor to desserts, breads, and doughs in general.
Its origin dates back to Mediterranean regions where almond tree cultivation is traditional, although currently its production is global due to high demand in healthy cooking and special diets.
Almond flour stands out for being rich in healthy fats, protein, fiber, B vitamins, vitamin E, and minerals such as magnesium and calcium. Furthermore, it is low in carbohydrates, making it a popular choice for ketogenic and low-carb diets.
In different regions of Latin America, almond flour can also be found under names like ground almond or powdered almond; however, the most common and recognized term is almond flour.
