Matthews Rye Flour – Perfect for cookies, biscuits & pancakes
Organic, light and dark, malted, spelt & rye blends
Matthews Rye Flour comes in multiple varieties, guaranteed to create a wonderful-tasting bake. Our rye flour is lovingly crafted in the Cotswolds through our partnership with farmers near Stow-on-the-Wold.
Rye flour offers opportunities to create light or dark bakes by using the different types of rye flour. Light rye flour has a lighter grey colour than wholegrain rye due to the stone ground milling process removing some of the bran. The stone ground milling does not remove all of the bran as some minerals and vitamins will remain from the bran and germ. Removing the bran makes the dough less dense and easier to work.
Our dark rye flour is milled from 100% rye berry, preserving the bran and germ within the flour, creating that lovely rich dark colour and nutty taste.
Our malted rye flour contains rye flakes. Malted rye flour is a rich and dark flour that smells amazing when baked due to the malted rye flakes. You can create denser loaves or mix this with other flour to craft a lighter but equally tasty bake.
Finally, our spelt and rye flour is a perfectly blended flour of wholegrain Cotswold rye and Cotswolds light spelt flour. Together they produce a lighter wholemeal blend full of texture, nutrition and flavour.
You can purchase Matthews Rye flour in individual 1.5kg bags, boxes of 5 (7.5kg total) and 16kg sacks for busy bakers.
