Amarnth Seeds

Amaranth Seeds are tiny, round grains derived from the Amaranthus plant, an ancient pseudocereal known for its exceptional nutritional value and gluten-free properties. Revered by the Aztecs and gaining popularity in modern health-conscious diets, amaranth is rich in protein, fiber, and essential amino acids, particularly lysine.

These seeds have a mildly earthy and nutty flavor and are used in a wide range of food applications—from cereals and snacks to gluten-free baking. Amaranth also pops like popcorn and can be added to bars, porridges, and granola.

Key Applications:

  • Gluten-free flours & baking

  • Breakfast cereals and porridge

  • Health and energy bars

  • Popped snacks

  • Nutritional supplements
