Description
Hazelnut flour is simply hazelnut kernels ground fine — a naturally gluten-free alternative to wheat flour. Swap part of the wheat flour in a recipe for hazelnut flour and the crumb stays moister, the aroma comes forward, and cakes and cookies keep for days without drying out. In gluten-free baking it is the closest relative to almond flour, with more flavour.

How to Enjoy
In a standard cake or cookie recipe, start by replacing 20-30% of the wheat flour with hazelnut flour — the result is moister and far more aromatic. In macarons and hazelnut tart bases it takes the lead role instead. It also thickens pastry creams and works as a gluten-free binder in meatballs and coatings. Sifting it before use breaks up any clumps and noticeably improves the texture.
Storage
Hazelnut flour is higher in oil than wheat flour, which makes it more delicate: heat and air turn that oil rancid. Keep it in a tightly closed jar somewhere cool and dark. For occasional baking the fridge is better, and for long storage the freezer is best. If it smells sharp or tastes bitter, do not use it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I substitute hazelnut flour one-for-one for wheat flour?
No. Without gluten it cannot hold a dough together on its own. The safest start is replacing 20-30% of the flour in a recipe. For a fully gluten-free bake, you will need to increase the egg or another binder.
How is it different from chopped hazelnuts?
Hazelnut flour is powdered and melts into the batter; chopped hazelnuts stay as pieces and keep their crunch. Choose chopped for texture, flour when you need a flour substitute.
Is it suitable for a gluten-free diet?
Hazelnuts are naturally gluten-free. If you avoid gluten for a medical reason such as coeliac disease, please check the label and advisory statements on the pack.
