Plantain Flour

Gluten-free flour, milled from organically grown plantain. For fufu with your favourite sauce, for baking, or in baby food.

What is plantain flour

One flour for the pot and the oven, made from a crop our farmer network grows.

Plantain flour is dried plantain, milled fine. In Cameroon it is best known as the base for fufu, but it also stands in for all-purpose flour in baking, and it goes into baby food.
