Food Grade Sunflower Seed Flour for Baking, Snacks, Bars, and Commercial Food Formulation
Nitro-Milled® Sunflower Seed Flour is a food grade sunflower seed flour manufactured and packaged by ONSET Worldwide in 50 lb bags. Made from raw sunflower seeds ground into a coarse flour, this ingredient offers a naturally nutty flavor and functional versatility for commercial baking, snack production, dry blends, coatings, and plant-based food applications.
Sunflower seed flour is commonly used as a gluten-free flour alternative or partial flour replacement in products such as crackers, cookies, bars, baked goods, breadings, batters, and specialty formulations. Because it is made from sunflower seeds, it contributes seed-based flavor, texture, and body while helping formulators build products without relying on traditional wheat flour.
