Add a versatile and healthy ancient grain to your pantry with Bluebird Grain Farm freshly milled spelt flour! Triticum spelta, is a single-strain wheat, the most common and versatile of the ancient wheats (Emmer, Einkorn and Spelt). Spelt is especially good for use in breads, and dense baked goods such as cookies and muffins.
Spelt can be used in place of common whole wheat flour, with no modifications. It brings a sweet, malty flavor to baked goods and a nutrient-dense profile. Because it is related to wheat, spelt flour contains gluten, but the gluten proteins in spelt are more water soluble than those in wheat, making it easier to digest. People with wheat allergies and mild gluten sensitivities claim that ancient wheats are easier to digest than modern wheats. Its ancient heritage makes spelt flour a great source of protein and essential minerals including manganese, zinc, and copper. Our spelt flour is high in dietary fiber, we do not remove any of the germ and bran in our milling process. Bluebird Spelt is a true ancient grain. It is harvested in the hull and  has to be de-husked before consumption. Unlike many companies who sell a “modernized hulless variety” that has been hybridized for industrial agriculture.
Bluebird Spelt flour can be used in any recipe that calls for whole wheat flour. Spelt adds a malty, sweet flavor and a light texture to your baked goods. If you are new to baking with whole wheat flour you may want to start out by substituting your recipe with 25% spelt flour and working your way up as you become more familiar with it.
Protein content of Spelt varies year to year based on growing conditions. Our Spelt protein content can range up to +20% protein.

I was so surprised by this flour. We had tried spelt flour from another provider before (yuch!) so I had zero expectations when we got spelt flour as part of a sampler from Bluebird. Suddenly I have a brown bread I will eat on purpose! Actually have used it frequently enough I have run out and will be re-ordering. The spelt bread recipe from the British baking show works wonderfully with this flour. Great texture and taste.
