Pinto Bean Flour


Sharon

Recommended Posts

Sharon Newbie

Was given some pinto bean flour but haven't seen any recipes on using it. Has anyone out there tried it? If so, all by itself or combined with other gluten free flours? Please HELP as I'm not very good when it comes to experimenting! Sharon

I never used it myself. I don't really care for the taste of bean flours, but I would mix it with other flours. Mix it with a starch at minimum.

I looked online for bean flour recipes.... and the only thing it is used for is to thicken soups or make bean dips. It also can be added to baked goods to add protien.

i also looked it up and found it only in baked beans and refried beans...

if you want to bake with it my advice is to try a very small amount (a fourth or less of your flour mix would be the bean flour) so that you dont overwhelm the other flavors in your baked goods. bean flours are known for very strong taste/smell. my first time to make a bread with garfava flour i thought the flour was bad because of the smell. i was afraid to eat it :P so start off with small amounts to see if it is a taste you enjoy or (can tolerate at all) hehe

good luck

bean flours are usually garbanzo beans and I don't particularly care for the side effects...

Thank you for your replies. Going to try adding one cup pinto bean flour to my regular flour mixture of 5 c wht rice flour, 2-1/2 c potato flour and 1-1/2 c tapioca flour. Hope it works OK!

      I know it's after the holidays, but it would still be fun to do a cookie recipe exchange on this forum.

      I did talk to the nurse and she asked who told me no red meat.  I explained the person who called with the results of my blood work.  That was last week.  She told me the doctor was on vacation and would be back this week and she would talk to him and have someone call me this week.  I have not received a call yet.  I will call them back Monday as a reminder.

      I shop a fair bit with Azure Standard. I bought Teff flour there and like it. they have a lot of items on your list but probably no soy flour, at least not by that name. https://www.azurestandard.com/shop/product/food/flour/teff/brown/teff-flour-brown-unifine-gluten-free/11211?package=FL294 As mentioned in another answer, Palouse is a high quality brand for dry beans, peas and other stuff. I buy some foods on your list from Rani. I've been happy with their products. https://ranibrand.com/ Azure and Rani often use terms that skirt around explicit "gluten free". I've contacted both of them and gained some comfort but it's always hard to be certain. FWIW, my IgA antibody levels are very low now, (after including their foods in my diet) so it appears I am being successful at avoiding gluten.

      fwiw, I add nutritional yeast to some of my recipes. since going gluten free I eat almost no processed foods but I imagine you could sprinkle yeast on top.

      @Charlie1946, There are many vitamin deficiencies associated with PCOS and Celiac disease and mental health issues.  The malabsorption of nutrients caused by Celiac can exacerbate PCOS and mental health issues. Vitamin B 3 Niacin (the kind that causes flushing) improves sebaceous hyperplasia and PCOS. (300 mg/day) Vitamin B 1 Thiamine improves dysphagia, and with Omega Threes, Sjogren's, and PCOS.     (300 mg/day) The other B vitamins are needed as well because they all work together like an orchestra.   The fat soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K, are needed as well.  Low Vitamin D is common in both PCOS and Celiac and depression.   Deficiencies in Niacin Thiamine, Cobalamine B12, Folate B 9, Vitamin C, and Vitamin D can cause mental health issues.   I wish doctors would check for nutritional deficiencies and gastrointestinal issues before prescribing antidepressants.  My mental health issues didn't get better until my vitamin deficiencies were corrected and a gluten free keto/paleo diet adopted.   Though blood tests are not really accurate, you may want to get tested for deficiencies before supplementing, otherwise you'll be measuring the vitamins you've taken and blood tests will show blood levels that are too high. Yes, Thiamine TTFD and the other vitamins are available over-the-counter.  A B Complex with additional Thiamine TTFD and Niacin made a big difference to my health.  I follow a paleo diet, and make sure I get Omega Threes.  I took high dose Vitamin D to correct my deficiency there.   I've run through the mental health gamut if you would like to talk about your issues.  You can personal message us if you would be more comfortable.   Interesting Reading: Nutritional and herbal interventions for polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS): a comprehensive review of dietary approaches, macronutrient impact, and herbal medicine in management https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12049039/
