I can't wait to try these biscuits though! <br /><br />I often toss the wet meal on a pan and stick it in the oven at the lowest temperature to dry then toss it in a container and in the fridge until I need it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12224933689441718814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7389214398846857752.post-21670512048263483922012-07-17T19:20:21.860-04:002012-07-17T19:20:21.860-04:00This is great!

I think for real fluffy type of items, use the super fine stuff (flour) and for other items that can stand a denser, coarser texture, use the ground almonds :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14387950418682782460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7389214398846857752.post-84216824153115722012012-07-16T20:43:58.974-04:002012-07-16T20:43:58.974-04:00The flour you can buy is MUCH finer and I would st...The flour you can buy is MUCH finer and I would strongly recommend it for baking. But as a trial basis type thing, it was perfect for me and gave me something to compare to when I did break down and buy the flour. I think this would be excellent for crackers which is next on my list of things to try!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14387950418682782460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7389214398846857752.post-75380686266614171222012-07-16T20:42:44.623-04:002012-07-16T20:42:44.623-04:00Tiffany, thanks for the heads up on the soaking .....Tiffany, thanks for the heads up on the soaking ... now I want to try the almond milk ... got it posted on your site how you do it?? :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14387950418682782460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7389214398846857752.post-2555452072244776482012-07-16T17:46:40.906-04:002012-07-16T17:46:40.906-04:00Visiting from Mopping the Floor... soaking the alm...Visiting from Mopping the Floor... soaking the almonds doesn't help to remove the skins, rather it makes them softer an thus easier to blend. I've soaked almonds for homemade almond milk, but to be honest, I'm not sure if soaking would be best for flour. By soaking in water, you're adding moisture to the almond. Kinda seems counterproductive if you're making flour... which, by the way, is super cool! Great job!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15631395493412458789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7389214398846857752.post-31198290559328353852012-07-16T10:43:34.891-04:002012-07-16T10:43:34.891-04:00This just sounds delicious even though I have no p...This just sounds delicious even though I have no patience for making my own anything.
