Eureka Wholemeal Flour
Why we love it
Why we love it
This wholemeal flour from Eureka contains the works – all the fibre and dense nutrition that is included in the wheat germ and bran. Bake up your own hearty homemade health bread or add this flour to whatever you bake to sneak in some added nutrition and tastiness to bargain. All of Eureka’s hearty flours are farmed in naturally enriched soil, using the ancient method of crop rotation, the healthy soil in turn reducing the need for pesticides and producing nutrient rich food. They're then stone ground using a slower-grinding mill that creates minimum heat, preserving the natural goodness of their nutrients. Wholemeal flour is higher in fibre, making it great for your digestive system.
