Spelt is an ancient wheat that has been prized for centuries and cultivated for as long as 5000 years. That alone says a lot about this glorious grain. But in a March 21, 2021 Bon Appetit article, author Alex Beggs baked spelt blueberry muffins and said this about spelt: "...I tasted a hint of pecan and bran from the spelt flour, subtle but present. It made me realize how neutral and flavorless all-purpose flour is. Boring, even!" So true, Alex, so true.

Spelt's lightly nutty, sweet flavour and its delicate colour make it a great choice for treats such as cakes, pie, cookies, muffins, and crusts as well as for quick breads or brownies. Wonderful for biscotti and amazing in your typical chocolate chip cookie recipe. Get a softer texture by milling very finely or milling the flour a second time. Any recipe that adds yogurt or buttermilk softens texture even further and beautifully compliments Spelt's natural flavour.

Spelt is more easily digestible than some other wheats due to its unique form of gluten. And it delivers on nutrition with iron, potassium, fibre, magnesium, Vitamin B6, and more.

Spelt and all our wheats are certified organic, Kosher, non-GMO, and are exclusively grown in Canada by really nice farmers. For more, see our Wheat Information Sheet.

Our sturdy, moisture resistant, resealable packaging will help keep your wheat fresh for 2- 4 years when stored in a cool, dry place and far longer if stored in the freezer. Whenever you mill, your fresh flour will unlock the nutrients saved inside each wheat berry. And wheat berries minimize storage space. One cup of berries becomes almost 2 cups of beautiful, fresh flour.
