Mung Bean Flour

Mung Bean Flour is a flour made from ground mung beans, used across South and Southeast Asian cuisines for pancakes, noodles, dumpling wrappers and gluten-free baking. It is valued for its neutral, slightly nutty flavor and fine texture that performs well as a protein-rich alternative to wheat or rice flours. Nutrition-wise, Mung Bean Flour is a concentrated plant protein source, providing about 23.9g of protein per 100g, and it also delivers substantial fiber and folate compared with many refined flours; it is low in fat and naturally gluten-free. From a health perspective, mung bean flour combines good protein quality with high fiber, making it useful for satiety and blood-sugar control, and its micronutrient content (notably folate and copper) adds further nutritional value for plant-based cooking.
