Bobs Red Mill Garbanzo Bean Flour, 16 Ounce (Pack of 4)

• You can substitute up to half the amount of all-purpose flour called for in a recipe with chickpea flour. This works best for quick breads and yeast breads.
• Garbanzo flour‚ also known as gram flour, chickpea powder and cici bean flour‚ is popular in Middle Eastern and Indian cooking and baking. Use it in dishes like falafel, hummus, socca, farinata, papadums and pakoras. It is also a wonderful ingredient for gluten free baking.
• Unlike all-purpose flour, chickpea flour is high in protein, fibre and micronutrients, while being low in carbohydrates and calories. Half a cup of chickpea flour contains an impressive 11 grams of protein, 5 grams of fibre, and nutrients like folate, iron, magnesium and zinc. Chickpea flour is also heart-healthy.
• Is chickpea flour keto? While chickpea flour is nutrient-dense and low in carbohydrates compared to wheat, rice, corn, and other grain flours, it is not considered a great keto option because it still is higher in carbs than other keto-friendly flours, like almond flour and coconut flour.
