This flour produces light easier-to-rise breads with the distinctive nutty and sweet spelt flavour. Spelt is a highly nutritious and healthy option, compared to wheat, as it is packed full of fibre. Cotswold Spelt is a perfect all-purpose healthy baking flour that produces delicious bread, cake, and biscuit recipes.

MILLING & PROVENANCE

Spelt was first cultivated 6000 to 9000 years ago. It is referred to as an ancient grain along with Einkorn and Emmer the other “Farro” wheats. Matthews works with spelt farmers around the Cotswold and the UK and collects the “hulled Spelt” and then shares a de-hulling plant at one local farm. The spelt is then collected by the mill and conditioned in our 100-year-old pine bins before being milled into different types of spelt flour.

PERFECT FOR

Spelt Bread, Spelt sourdough pizza, Spelt wraps, Spelt scones, Spelt muffins, Spelt crepes, Use in replacement to all-purpose flour. Alternatively blend 20% spelt into your wholegrain flours for added flavour and to make a lighter loaf.
