Coffe Flour is a flour made from coffee. Specifically, from the pulp of coffee cherries. Coffee beans come encased in a red fruit; the bean that we know is essentially a pit of a cherry. During the harvest and milling process, the bean is separated from the red berry, and the pulp is set aside. Sometimes it’s used as fertilizer; oftentimes it’s discarded. Coffee Flour makes use of this abandoned by-product, grinding it into a high-fiber, gluten-free flour. It has a dark bittersweet cocoa taste (and actually smells more like tobacco than coffee), and can be used in sweet and savory baked goods and as a flavoring on its own.
