What is Quinoa Flour?
Quinoa Flour is a fine powder made from grinding the seeds of the quinoa plant (Chenopodium quinoa). Native to the Andes region of South America, quinoa is often referred to as a "superfood" due to its high nutritional profile. Quinoa Flour is naturally gluten-free, rich in protein, fiber, and a wide range of vitamins and minerals, making it a popular ingredient in healthy, gluten-free, and plant-based diets.
Millet Store’s Quinoa Flour is made from premium, non-GMO quinoa seeds, ensuring a nutrient-dense and pure product, freshly milled to preserve all the natural goodness.
