Almond flour v Almond powdered milk

Hi,

 

I'm currently using coconut powdered milk and cacao butter to make milk chocolate but the coconut powder is high in carbohydrates so I am looking at almond milk powder as an alternative.

Can almond flour be used as a replacement for almond milk powder?

I can't get a definitive answer on Google 😢.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

The only possible difference I would think would be whether or not either of the two is ground with the skin intact on the seeds.

I'm so tempted to find out that I'm actually using almond flour right now.

I mixed it into melted cacao butter and attempted to temper it at the correct temperatures for white chocolate.

Felt a bit foolish when it started to resemble a dough mixture 😂 but I've put it into a melinger (chocolate refiner) and will run it for 4 hours.

Will let you know what it looks like but I'm really not holding out much hope.

Perhaps this was not a good idea 😞

Well, questions just can't be answered except by hands on experimentation I guess. Press on!

This has been a big fail.

Next question has to be how to make almond powdered milk.

The products out there have ingredients with are terrible so I'm wondering how to make it myself.

I know how to dehydrate milk to form powdered milk but really don't know if this would work using almond milk or homemade almond milk.

Keep us posted. I'm guessing there are others who would like to know how to make it for themselves. Stuff like that is expensive to buy ready made.

Exactly, and the natural organic almond powder I have spotted contains maltodextrin even though they say it has no 'added' sugar.

Seriously, they really need to be held accountable 😔.

Hi,

The almond powder milk I've found is ridiculously expensive but I have found a suitable low carb almond milk - Blue Diamond Almond Breeze Original (Unsweetened), which I intend to dehydrate and use as milk powder.

This would not be an issue with dark chocolate as this doesn't require milk powder but let's face it, milk and white chocolate is far more appealing 😆.

      But for someone with Barrett's like @Charlie1946, long term PPI therapy might be necessary.

      Aaaackkk!!! Stop with the Omeprazole! It's not good, especially if taken for a long period of time!!! Gerd and Acid Reflux are actually caused by too little digestive enzymes resulting from nutritional deficiencies in Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3 that are needed to make digestive enzymes.
