How to Switch Almond Flour With Enriched Flour

Almond flour frequently is used for baked goods, especially in gluten-free recipes. It is sweet, nutty and high in protein and can enhance the flavor of recipes that call for enriched flour. Enriched flour is flour that has been stripped of its nutrients during processing and bleached to whiten its color. Usually, some nutrients are added back to the flour. With the correct method and adjustments, you can substitute almond flour for enriched flour for most baked goods.

Beat or stir dry ingredients into dough. With enriched flour over beating or mixing will increase its toughness. However, with an almond flour-based dough, longer beating will increase aeration and result in a light and moist finished baked good.
