Ideal for gluten-free cooking, it’s a cupboard staple for both home bakers and professional kitchens.
What is potato flour in the UK?
In the UK, potato flour refers to a gluten-free flour made from whole potatoes — not to be confused with potato starch, which is extracted from the starch only. Potato flour retains the full flavour and nutrients of the potato, giving it a creamy colour and a slightly earthy taste that enriches baked goods, soups, and gravies. It’s naturally gluten-free, making it a great choice for people with coeliac disease or gluten sensitivity.
Potato flour substitute
If you’ve run out of potato flour or need an alternative, there are a few good options. Potato starch offers similar thickening power but less flavour. Cornflour or rice flour can also work in sauces and batters. For baking, tapioca flour or arrowroot powder can help mimic potato flour’s moisture-retaining qualities. Still, for authentic texture and flavour, nothing beats genuine potato flour.
Potato flour recipes
Potato flour adds moisture, structure, and tenderness to countless recipes. It’s particularly valued in gluten-free baking, where it helps prevent dryness. Use it in:
-
Bread and rolls to improve softness and shelf life
-
Pancakes and waffles for a light, fluffy texture
-
Soups, gravies, and sauces a natural thickeners
-
Cakes and muffins to boost moisture and flavour
Whether you’re baking gluten-free treats or thickening soups, potato flour delivers consistent results.
Is potato flour gluten-free?
Absolutely. Potato flour is a gluten-free flour made from cooked, dried, and ground whole potatoes, with no wheat, barley, or rye. It’s safe for those with gluten intolerance or coeliac disease, and it works beautifully alongside other gluten-free flours like rice, tapioca, or sorghum for better structure and elasticity in doughs and batters.
