MULTIGRAIN FLOUR FOR HEALTH & VITALITY

 Multigrain flour has become a mainstay in our house. Made with a blend of our favorite grains and seeds, it’s a healthy base for baking all of our favorite breads at home! Studies have proven that multigrain flour is great for the human digestive system. Nutritious, wholesome, and loaded with fibers, multigrain is just what your digestive system needs for better metabolism.

ADVANTAGES OF MAKING YOUR OWN MULTIGRAIN FLOUR:

·         Knowing exactly what goes in.

·         Being able to adjust the types and ratios of grains for just the right flavor and texture.

·         Being able to determine whether you want to use organic options or grains with / without husks, etc. 

·         It’s always fresh! You can grind only what you can use in a short period of time for a few batches of bread. 

WHAT GOES INTO A MULTIGRAIN FLOUR MIX?

Multigrain flour is typically made with at least two whole grains, but usually consists of 7 or more, including barley, wheat, oats, brown rice, and even seeds. Commonly used seeds include flaxseed, quinoa, and buckwheat. 

We pick a handful of whole grains, and mix in some store-bought whole grain flours like buckwheat flour, cornmeal, and whole wheat flour to round out the flavor.
