Rice flour
Finely milled rice with no fermentation involved — a widely used low-histamine flour alternative.
Rice flour is just dried rice ground into a powder — no fermentation, no aging, no additives in the plain version.
-
A reliable gluten-free base — it's one of the most commonly recommended flour swaps for people managing both gluten sensitivity and histamine sensitivity
-
Check blended products — pre-made gluten-free flour blends sometimes include ingredients like chickpea flour or apple cider vinegar powder, which can add histamine concerns
Plain, single-ingredient rice flour is usually the cleanest option for baking.
