Abstract

Composite flour includes native plant flour and complexed MCT and/or other nutritional oil at least partially encapsulated by wall material and incorporated within the composite flour, wherein polysaccharide from a portion of the native plant flour forms part of the wall material. The wall material includes protein, e.g., pea protein, polysaccharide released from the native plant flour, and emulsifier(s), and/or polysaccharide fiber, e.g., acacia fiber. The native plant flour may be gluten-flour, gluten-free flour and/or low carbohydrate seed, nut or vegetable flour. Composite flours can replace traditional flours to make food products, such as baked goods, fried goods, boiled goods, or uncooked goods, but with benefits, such as reduced gluten and/or carbohydrates, increased freshness and volume and improved texture and taste compared to alternative flours and even all-purpose flour. Composite flour can be blended with native flour and/or another composite flour to form blended flour.
