The global almond flour market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 7.2% during the forecast period (2020-2026). The almond flour market is compelled by the rising demand for healthy food products with snacking options as well, specifically increasing preference for plant-based snacks. Food processing companies are coming up with diversified product offerings in terms of flavor profiles, shapes, and in particular healthier attributes, to gain customer’s attention. The market has been witnessing an unprecedented surge with growing consumer preference for healthy snacking choices including reduced fat and sodium content, in turn, increasing the demand for almond flour within food processing.
Further, with the growing consumer awareness regarding healthy snacking habits, consumers are looking for something that has more healthy substances than other snacks such as chips and candies. This has made way for the inclusion of protein-rich meals, in the regular diet, which, in turn, allows the market players to launch more almond flour-based food products. Conventionally, almond flour was typically sold in convenience stores/major retailing chains, but as more consumers are inclined towards a healthier lifestyle, more and more retail channels have started selling them.
However, due to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the production volume and sales of almond flour has taken a serious hit. Food service processors all across the globe had to shut their operations, in compliance with the lockdown regulations. Although, the online sales channel witnessed a tremendous spike and recorded unprecedented sales for almond flour.

Blanched Almond Flour Gaining Popularity in Bakery Products
Blanched almond flour is expected to be the fastest-growing form segment in the global almond flour market. Owing to their versatility and superior nutritional profiles, the blanched almond flour sub-segment has occupied one of the premium places in the market. There has been an emerging trend of ‘superfoods’ that have added health-promoting traits over and above their basic nutritional profiles. Blanched almond flour is increasingly being considered in the category of superfoods for its fine, smooth, fluffy texture, as well as its nutritional properties, thereby, driving its growth as base ingredients in bakery products. The concept of the paleo diet has also emphasized protein intake from nuts and seeds, such as almond. Bakery companies are increasingly launching products based on blanched almond flour that are in line with health and wellness trends.

North America is anticipated to hold a considerable share in the almond flour market in 2019 and is projected to sustain its growth dominance during the forecast period. The consumers in North America are increasingly trying to lead healthier lifestyles, hence, turning towards almond flour as an alternative to wheat flour, for obesity issues. More and more food service providers are producing and selling almond flour containing food products, that are increasingly preferred by the North American population.
