HOW TO MAKE RICE FLOUR

Rice flour is a wonderful alternative for those sensitive to gluten (found in products such as wheat and rye) and who are living a gluten free lifestyle.

Additionally, making your own flour is both fast, inexpensive, and healthy.

While various types of rice flour are used internationally, long grain white and brown rice are the most popular.

With a high powered blender, you can grind rice into fresh flour, and use for bread, muffins, cookies, and other baked goods.  We like to use in our pancakes, tortillas, and for breaded cutlets and other frying.

Try including brown rice flour in soups & casseroles to add more fiber.

Note: When grinding hard grains, it may pit the BPA free jar interior, resulting in a “fogged” appearance. Blender Babes uses and recommends keeping one jar specifically for dry goods and one for all else – since cosmetic alterations are not covered under warranty.

HEALTH BENEFITS & FUN FACTS

Rice flour is high in protein.  Flour from brown rice contains a higher level of B vitamins.

The primary difference between brown and white rice is the husk, however the husk of brown rice remains intact during milling. This makes it a good selection when considering fiber, vitamins, and nutrients such as calcium and zinc.

Dietary fiber is an essential part of any eating plan and rice contains insoluble fiber, the substance that helps waste material move through the intestines. A diet high in fiber will lower cholesterol, improve blood sugar levels, and promote regular bowel movements.

Brown rice contains more fiber than does white due to the husk.

Blendtec Promo Code

Substitute brown rice flour for wheat to help with weight loss. A diet rich in fiber helps you feel fuller and reduces hunger. By adding more fiber to your daily meal plan with rice flour, you may lower your risk for developing some medical conditions, such as diverticular disease, colon diseases, type-2 diabetes and hypertension.

    1. Hi Bazia! I just use plain white rice (usually organic) when making rice flour. Of course you can try different ones! What are you planning to make? ~Tarashaun

  1. Funny…my rice stays little pearl sized of 1-2mm. It doesn’t become a powder. I don’t know why. Maybe my rice? Although I am using plain long grain. I’m using an Omniblend. Which normally has the same results as Vitamix and Blendtec.

    1. Blender Babes

      Hey Anne! I just tested rice flour in my Omniblend for you! At first I used the 90 second blend and it left the small rice pebbles you described. I then continued using HIGH and it ground the rice. I would suggest using HIGH perhaps twice. I made a quick video of it for you to see here.

    1. Blender Babes

      Many people wash and soak the rice first (for 3 hours minimum). You will need to make sure it’s completely dried out before grinding it – such as using a dehydrator or putting it on the oven on low. 🙂

  2. Blender Babes Rock! Thank you for the blendtech advice on making gluten free brown rice flour! I just made 2 cups from Lindberg organic short grain brown rice and will use to make some GF waffles. It's great to enjoy a GF breakfast with my kids!
