Cassava flour is pretty much my new favorite paleo flour. It’s made from the same root that tapioca starch is made from, but it’s not just the starch; it’s the whole peeled root, which makes it more of a whole food. It really tastes like regular flour in most baked goods, and I love finding and making new cassava flour recipes!
My favorite thing about cassava flour is that it has a good bit of starch in it, but it’s not pure starch like arrowroot and tapioca are. That makes it really close in in texture to white flour. The only brand that I use is Otto’s Naturals, and I feel like there isn’t anything I can’t do with their flour! Check out this list of my favorite cassava flour recipes!
