About Quinoa flour

Quinoa flour is a milled flour made from quinoa seeds. It is usually fine and beige to pale yellow, with a mildly earthy, nutty flavour that can be more pronounced than that of many cereal flours.

It is used in baking and cooking, often alone in some preparations or blended with other flours. Products may be made from raw or heat-treated seed, and grind and processing vary; quinoa flour does not behave exactly like wheat flour in doughs.
