About Dinkelflocken

Dinkelflocken, known as spelt flakes in English, are a nutritious whole grain product made by flattening spelt kernels. Originating from ancient grains, spelt has roots in European cuisine, particularly Germany, where Dinkelflocken is a staple in breakfast cereals, porridge, and baked goods. Rich in fiber, these flakes promote healthy digestion and provide sustained energy due to their complex carbohydrates. They are a good source of essential nutrients like manganese, iron, magnesium, and B vitamins, supporting overall health and metabolism. Unlike highly processed grains, Dinkelflocken retains most of its natural nutrients. While spelt contains gluten, making it unsuitable for those with celiac disease, its lower gluten content compared to modern wheat may be easier to digest for some individuals. Versatile and filling, Dinkelflocken is an excellent choice for those seeking a wholesome and natural addition to their diet.
