Bob's Red Mill Stone Ground Millet Flour
What it is
This is a finely ground flour made from whole millet grains. Millet is a small, round grain that has been cultivated for thousands of years. The stone grinding process helps to preserve the natural oils and nutrients of the grain, resulting in a flavorful and wholesome flour. It has a slightly nutty taste and a tender texture when cooked.
How people cook with it
Millet flour can be used in a variety of baking and cooking applications.
- Baking breads and muffins
- Thickening sauces and gravies
- Creating pancakes and waffles
- Adding to grain bowls
When baking, millet flour can often be substituted for a portion of all-purpose flour to add a different flavor and texture. It absorbs liquid differently than wheat flour, so you may need to adjust the amount of liquid in your recipe. In savory dishes, it works well as a binder or a thickening agent for soups and stews.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to other grain flours, stone ground millet flour offers a unique nutty flavor profile. Its fine texture, achieved through stone grinding, distinguishes it from more processed flours.

How to keep the rest
