Brown Rice Flour
Quay's brown rice flour is made from 100% US grown rice.
Quay’s Brown rice flour is a nutritious and gluten-free flour made from whole brown rice grains, including the bran and germ layers. It offers a slightly coarse texture and is rich in vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber.
Gluten Free Alternative: Brown rice flour can be used as a 1:1 substitute for all-purpose flour in many recipes. However, because it doesn’t contain gluten, you may need to add other ingredients to help your baked goods rise and hold their shape. Xanthan gum or guar gum are both important binders in gluten-free baking.

Brown Rice Flour FAQs
How does brown rice flour differ from white rice flour?
Brown rice flour is made from whole rice grains, retaining the bran and germ layers, whereas white rice flour is made from polished rice grains, which lack the bran and germ. This makes brown rice flour more nutritious and higher in fiber.
Is brown rice flour gluten-free?
Yes, brown rice flour is naturally gluten-free, making it suitable for individuals with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease.
Can brown rice flour be used as a 1:1 substitute for wheat flour in recipes?
Brown rice flour can be used as a gluten-free alternative to wheat flour in some recipes, but it may not always produce the same results due to differences in texture and binding properties. In some cases, a combination of various gluten-free flours or the addition of xanthan gum may be necessary to achieve the desired texture.
Can brown rice flour be used in sweet and savory dishes?
Yes, brown rice flour is versatile and can be used in both sweet and savory dishes, including pancakes, muffins, bread, gravies, and coatings for fried foods.
