Brown rice flour

Brown rice flour is a type of flour made from ground brown rice grains. Brown rice itself is a whole grain that still has its bran and germ layers intact, making it more nutritious than white rice. The flour is gluten-free, making it suitable for people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivities.

To make brown rice flour, brown rice grains are finely ground into a powder-like consistency. This process retains the nutritional value of brown rice while creating a versatile ingredient that can be used in baking, cooking, or as a thickening agent in various recipes.

Brown rice flour is often included in food products as a gluten-free alternative to regular flour. It can be found in gluten-free bread, cakes, cookies, and other baked goods. Brown rice flour helps add a nutty flavour and a slightly denser texture to dishes, making it a popular choice for those looking to diversify their diets with healthier, gluten-free options.
