Fava Bean Flour

Fava Bean Flour

EverydayDry

Fava bean flour is a gluten-free, protein-rich powder made by drying and milling whole fava beans, a legume cultivated since ancient times. With nearly double the protein content of chickpea flour and a robust earthy flavor, it serves as a nutrient-dense base for Middle Eastern falafel, Egyptian ta‘meya, and gluten-free baked goods. The flour retains the beans’ high fiber and iron content while offering a versatile, slightly nutty taste that adapts well to both savory dishes and plant-based protein enhancements.
