Almond Flour
Almond flour is finely ground blanched or whole almonds. It adds nutty flavor, tenderness, and moisture to baked goods, but it does not behave like wheat flour.
Identity
Nut flour
Tender and moist, but not a direct wheat-flour swap.
Use almond flour when a recipe is built for its moisture and low structure. It can brown quickly and make crumbly toppings tender, but it usually needs a tested formula when replacing wheat flour.
