Hi

I'm sorry if this has been asked before.

Where can you buy Almond Flour from? I looked in Asda and Tesco today but couldn't find any. Will it be in the home-baking section?

Thanks in advance

You can buy ground almonds - it's the same thing I'm told. I've used it and it does work, but it's expensive.

as @Loobles said, most people just use ground almonds, I think the flour has less oil and ground finer and even more expensive than ground almonds

I use ground almonds from Aldi (about £1.30 per 300g packet).

Yes, they are in homebaking, with nuts. ASDA do it too, but it's more expensive than Aldi

*sigh* I wish we had an Aldi or a Lidl. Only place that sells almond flour is my local health food shop at £3 for 250g! Ah, but it's organic I expect ... but I've just made the almond cheese bread in the recipe section and it's lush :)

You can always buy almonds and grind them yourself.

I never realised it was literally ground almonds! Silly me. I'll definitely give that a go, thanks for the replies.

Weirdly it's often cheaper to buy almonds ground rather than whole in the supermarkets. I can't explain that but I'm not complaining :p
