almond meal

Pulverized tree nuts

Almond meal is ground almonds, used as a flour substitute in baking.

It provides moisture and density to cakes, cookies, and crusts while adding a subtle nutty flavor.

Unlike almond flour, which uses blanched almonds ground very fine, almond meal typically includes the skins and has a coarser texture: The recipe calls for almond meal, not almond flour.
