EverydayDry

Plantain flour is a gluten-free flour made from dried and ground green plantains. This flour offers a subtly sweet flavor and a slightly coarser texture compared to wheat flour, making it a versatile ingredient for both sweet and savory recipes. It is often used as a wheat flour substitute for individuals with gluten sensitivities or those following paleo diets, while also providing a good source of resistant starch and dietary fiber.
