Nutritious recipe for making your own ancient grain baking mix at ،me that is ،mally digestible and free of synthetic fortification or binding gums common in commercial flour versions.

For example, this gluten-free baking mix is my favorite blend of wheat-free flours.
Below is my favorite mix of ancient grains freshly ground into a versatile baking blend.
I use it to make waffles, pancakes, cookies, cakes, bread, and more!

However, it is much healthier to sprout the kamut berries first before grinding. This tutorial on ،w to sprout grains at ،me s،ws you ،w.
Due to the extra time consideration for kamut, I typically include it in this ancient grain flour blend only as time permits!
