Gluten-free flour is a type of flour made from grains, seeds, nuts, or roots that do not contain gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye. It is used by people who have celiac disease, gluten intolerance, or prefer gluten-free diets to avoid gluten-related health issues.

Why it’s popular now:

• Growing awareness of gluten-related health issues like celiac disease and gluten sensitivity is increasing demand for gluten-free products.
• More consumers are adopting gluten-free diets for perceived health benefits or lifestyle choices.
• Advances in gluten-free flour blends improve baking quality and taste, making it easier to substitute in recipes (white and brown rice flours, tapioca starch, potato starch, almond flour, oat flour) without compromising texture or flavor.

Gluten-free flour blends combine different flours and starches to mimic the properties of wheat flour and achieve good baking results, contributing to its trendiness and popularity.
