Almond Flour... is it just Almond Meal?

The simple answer is yes! 

​Blanched Almond Meal, also known as Almond Flour is made from grinding blanched almonds (skins removed) down to fine consistency.

This is a popular flour for gluten free cooking.

Natural Almond Meal is what is more commonly referred as almond meal.

​Natural meal is the almonds ground down with the skins still on. You can see the brown flecks in the meal.

Both can be used interchangeably. 

You can also make your own meals by grinding either blanched or natural almonds in a blender until you reach the desired consistency  - generally about 10 seconds.
