For extra-chewy bread, pizza, and bagels, and the highest-rising whole-grain loaves

This is the highest-gluten flour (14.2% protein) available on the retail market today. It's a must-have for lusty, extra-chewy artisan breads, and breads made with lots of whole grains.

  • This unbleached flour is carefully milled from the finest hard red spring wheat.
  • Perfect for pizza, bagels, chewy artisan loaves... anytime you want extra "chew" in your bread, or extra rise in your whole-grain (rye, whole wheat, oat) loaves.
  • 3-pound bag, bagel recipe included.
BOTTOM LINE: Bagels. Chewy bread sticks and pizza crust. A sandwich loaf that includes oats, and seeds, and nuts… Lancelot to the rescue! Extra protein = extra gluten = extra chew. And the higher the protein, the higher the rise, so Lancelot is ideal when you’re having trouble getting loaves to rise.

TEST KITCHEN TIP: High-protein flour absorbs more liquid than medium-protein flour. When baking with Lancelot, add about 1 tablespoon extra liquid for each cup of flour (or more, in order to produce dough the consistency the recipe calls for.) » View packaging [116KB PDF]

I love this flour. I use this for all my breads that I make to sell at my local Farmer's Market. I am able to get it in bulk from a local dry goods store.

I've been making home-made pizza for years and it has always been very good. I tried this flour and wow! what a difference it made in the crust. It is always crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. great in the oven or on a grill. If you are a pizza maker buy this flour!

I love using this flour to make pizza dough! Everyone comments on how wonderful the pizza tastes, better than the pizzeria. I would love to see this flour available in Safeway stores because I go through it so quickly!

I signed up as a volunteer tester for Cooks Illustrated and just used this flour for the dough in their latest recipe. It was my first pizza created entirely from scratch and I was very happy with the result. Would love to see your products available in Canadian stores!
Sir Lancelot Flour makes a terrific, chewy pizza crust. Your suggestion has been added to our Customer Observations. Irene @ KAF

$6.95 for 3 pounds isn't too bad, in our local supermarket Red Mill high gluten flour is $7.19 for 22oz, so if you are buying a few items fro KAF to justify the shipping costs you make out OK, otherwise 2 bags of Red Mill, 44oz will not be too bad either.

I can buy this bulk in my area-Honest Weight Food Co-op-and the price is amazing! The flour works perfectly for making my Everything Bagels.

I don't know why so many complaints about the size or cost of this product. I can buy it by the case in 3.5 pound cans for $10.99 or 50 pounds for $95.00 (which is the cheapest but who makes that much chewy bread?) I appreciate the fact that KAF has gone out its way to carry it for us. Thanks KAF! Birdy...

I just made wonderful bagels with this flour. If you cannot package a larger bag, please do consider offering a price cut for the purchase of multiple bags, as you do, for example, with the Baker's Special Dry Milk.

This is the best flour for pizza that I have used! Crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside, crispy on the bottom. Forget all of the others and buy this.

I agree with Kathleen; this kind of flour is key to the type of bagels I used to get in New York. You can't buy them anywhere in central Illinois, but now I can make my own with great results. Try looking at YouTube for some useful tips on forming the bagel itself if you need help...
