I did not know there was such a thing as low carb flour
It's okay. Quinoa has lots of protein and can be used for baking-- when as a flour and can be used as a second or third substitute for when cooking different types of potato/rice dishes. 
My favorite type of low carb. flour is Almond. I use Quinoa for a side dish or a potato substitute.
Where would the millet, sorghum and buckwheat that I use fit in here?
It goes under Other/None of the Above. Your answer/reply is in the right place for where to put the choices you use when letting everyone know them, though.
I use fiberflour, keeps sugars stable, put together by a doctor whose patients have diabetes it has pre/prebiotic (isk which don't remember lol) in
It's okay. I never knew there was a flour that had a lot of fiber in it. Thank you for the information.
I use Gluten Free Flour
I use Almond/Gluten Free flour when baking/cooking. What gluten free flour do you use?
I use Freee gluten free flour (is it Doves Farm - Ive got plain and SR there’s a dove type bird next to the name) mainly and sometimes almond and I thicken things with a bit of cornflour but I tend to avoid products involving flour because the carbs in the products I would be making with it would spike my blood sugar.
Gluten free.
I use an almond flour that's gluten free.
my favourite is quinoa but oat flour's really useful too.
That's fantastic to hear, Sue. What do you cook/bake with them?
I use the oat flour in some of my pancakes and muffins and after reading about Jerry's success with quinoa flour I add it to my usual wheat flours too for extra protein as neither my husband nor I need to be gluten free.
I really like almond flour and I will have to try quinoa in a few weeks when I can get some quinoa flour and use it for a few meal ideas.😀👍
