Pete No-H Townsend: I bought this almond flour for making ketogenic, low-carbohydrate yeast bread. It seems to work fine for that although it does not make the bread taste just like my wife's favorite brioche bread. A bit of vanilla extract helps a bit. I have been experimenting with a recipe for "Low Carb Almond Bread Machine Bread" by "docbower" on Food.com. It makes a nice loaf of bread with a good crumb and sturdy enough to stand up to a BLT with juicy tomatoes. In addition to the vanilla I have added three eggs, more butter, honey instead of sugar to feed the yeast and Swerve Powdered sugar substitute for flavor. I have been adding an extra cup of almond flour to compensate for the eggs. It needs a 2-pound bread machine to make this.

Becky C.: I love to bake! In my attempts to become more healthy and consume less wheat and white flours, I've switched to almond flour for many of my recipes. I first got turned onto the Honeyville brand by a famous Paleo chef who highly recommended it due to it's fine grind and close comparison to pastry flour. It's true! I've tried several other brands of almond flour and almond/coconut blends, and none come close to performing as well as Honeyville. My cakes and breads turn out with a texture similar to those baked with regular flour. The taste is delicious and there's no grainy feel in my mouth. I use it to bread chicken tenders and the kids can't even tell the difference. I usually freeze about half the bag if I'm not using it regularly, and it comes out of the freezer fresh and good as new! I find that it lasts in my cupboard way longer than other flours as well. If you're a baker like me, you can't go wrong with Honeyville. It's the best!

CrazyAboutBooks: I usually buy organic but it is hard to find organic almond flour and organic companies offering almond flour processes it with unblanched almonds. I thought perhaps leaving the hull on the nut would affect the baking qualities of the flour, that it might not be fine enough to actually stick together even with egg. Many reviewers of those few flours indicated that was the case. Just about every reviewer mentioned liking Honeyville Blanched Almond Flour and claimed it was far superior to other almond flours. So even if it wasn't organic I bought a bag.
On the bag it proclaims that they are proud to use Blue Diamond Almonds. I'm not confident in the quality of many big company foods so I wasn't that impressed with this claim. Regardless, I have to admit the batch of cookies I made turned out well so the flour works and I'll use it, although slowly. It wouldn't be fair to mark the flour down because the supplier of the almonds probably sprays too many chemicals or that it isn't organic since I knew it wasn't organic when I bought it. I'm rating it 4 stars. It works, it tastes good and most bakers would like it. I can't compare it to other almond flours yet since this is my...

Robin: I read other comments on low carb groups about how great this almond flour is with its fine grind so I had to give it a try. Unfortunately, I had to finish up my current supply so I just now have started using this. WOW! The milling of this is nice and fine! No, it still can't compete with (toxic) wheat flour for light fluffy breads, but it IS better than the more coarse almond flours out there. My first loaf using it was noticeably better than what I had been using and both my husband and son noticed the difference. My husband even asked if I had found a new and better recipe.
It is a little more expensive than some other almond flours, but I feel the price is worth it! Previous bread didn't get eaten up before its suggested lifespan. Now my bread is going fast. (Hmm...maybe that is a negative. More work for me baking more bread. LOL). Today I am going to try to make hamburger buns with it. The guys miss eating burgers "the right way". 😉
I am happy to recommend this almond flour to anyone who is cutting out grains for whatever reason. It has been a real bonus item for us on our Wheat Belly lifestyle.
