Gluten Free Flour (Plain)

The Free from Fairy Flour is exceptional and has transformed my gluten free baking for my daughter with coeliac disease.

Both the self raising and plain flours perform much better than others meaning that I can use them just like wheat based flours. Most importantly they are actually gluten free rather than having low levels of gluten. My daughter remained unwell for years after diagnosis and moving to a gluten free diet and only eliminating processed food and commercially produced substitutes has resulted in her being well again.

I use the flours in all my recipies - cakes, biscuits, breads, pastry, batter, sauces and gravy. My non coeliac extended family also thoroughly enjoyed their gluten free Christmas!

My order arrived this morning and I've just tried my first loaf with Free From Fairy flour and the recipe from her website... for the first time in years I have proper brown bread! I used aquafaba (liquid from a tin of butter beans) instead of the eggs and it worked perfectly. It looks like real bread, tastes like real bread, wonderfully crusty with soft, light inside and a good, tasty but not overpowering flavour. And easy to make. After so many attempts with various blends that never came out right, I'm absolutely delighted.

Edit: After trying a few more recipes I can confidently say this is the best gluten free flour I have used. It's easy to work with and tastes great. It makes the perfect crust for quiche with the shortcrust pastry recipe in Vicki's ebook - maybe even better than wheat! It's not just "good for gluten free", this is seriously good flour in its own right. I now look forward to making FFF flour a regular purchase.

The flour is fantastic. My daughter is a coeliac, my husband and I are not but we really enjoy the bread we make from the flour. We don"t have to worry about cross contamination, the bread is delicious!

It is better than competitors for making bread in a breadmaker with a few simple ingredients.

Excellent and easy to use product, supplier has and excellent website with recipes and ideas and is very friendly and helpful if you have any questions. We love eating things made with this flour.

Whether you are Coeliac, wheat intolerant or just after a healthy, gluten, wheat & rice free flour, this is tops.

After becoming gluten intolerant last year I lost my passion for baking as the gf flours I was using did not give good results at all. Having tried to persevere with various brands of shop bought gf bread (and cakes and biscuits!) for over a year I was fed up with the flavours and textures and increasingly concerned about all the strange sounding additives and high sugar content they contained. I had followed the free from fairy page on Facebook for a while and I finally decided to buy some flour. Today made the baguettes and the banana bread from the recipes on the free from fairy website. What a revelation! They are simply fantastic. It was so good to be able to eat a tasty healthy homemade bread with my homemade soup again, and as my husband liked the bread too we are not preparing two different meals which is a bonus. Thank you so much Vicki I will be buying much more of your flour and am looking forward to trying more of your recipes. You have reignited my passion for baking xx

This is the best gluten free flour I have found and about the only one that works well in my breadmaker. One member of my family is seriously allergic to gluten and dairy and eggs. This flour is the perfect answer.

It is much better that competitors and I've made bread in the breadmaker with it.

The flour is lovely to work with and...dare I say it on this site..! it works beautifully in a bread maker, too!

I use the flour for bread making all the time and it's the texture which is so great, especially the crust which, with other flours, never gets that non-gluten feel to it; gorgeous.

I mainly make my own bread 'recipe' (made up over the years)

Early days for me with this gluten free game and as a mere 77 year old male I have struggled over the last 18 months or so since I found that I had a problem with wheat and found it difficult to eat either in or out. The great majority of GF products and meals are revolting, the GF flours I have tried are gritty and tasteless. The flour is expensive, especially for a pensioner, but food should be enjoyed and as my old mum always told me back in the 1940s/60s " you only get what you pay for with any commodity, so don't go for the cheapest".

To date, I'd say this flour was far better than your competitors.

I've made Bread, Scones, Yorkshire puds and fruit crumbles with it!

The wholegrain gluten free ‘Fairy’ flour blend created by Vicki Montague is simply brilliant.

Not only does it deliver superb and very consistent baking results, it is flavoursome, nutty, delicious and, being wholegrain, healthy too! I do love buckwheat, in my opinion a very underused ingredient. It is actually an Asian plant of the dock family, producing starchy seeds. When milled into flour, these seeds add great flavour – traditionally used for blinis, (buckwheat pancakes to accompany caviar), Vicki has harnessed the great potential of these seeds in her flour blend. Teff and sorghum also add a depth of flavour.

I thoroughly recommend these two flour blends and would also like to say to any coeliac, whether recently diagnosed or not, that you won’t find anyone anywhere more dedicated that Vicki who is prepared to offer invaluable advice and help others in their quest to overcome dietary restrictions.

Being diagnosed with coeliac disease is not the end of the world, it is the beginning of an entirely new and exciting one.

You may be able to find a less expensive gluten free alternative flour to bake with, but you are far less likely to achieve the same amazing flavour!
