URBAN KITCHEN PANTRY: Almond Flour

Almond Flour is simply ground-up almonds so it gives you all of the original almond’s health benefits. One cup of this flour contains about 90 almonds and provides more than 100% of the daily requirement for vitamin E. Super versatile, almond flour can be used in all kinds of baked foods, and it packs a potent punch of nutrition, unlike a typical gluten-rich, overly processed flour that does nothing good for your health.

 

Science has shown that almonds are a natural powerhouse when it comes to heart health, blood sugar management and even some types of cancer. Studies have also found that the almonds that make up its namesake flour are even better than complex carbohydrates when it comes to losing weight and maintaining a slimmer waistline
