Each 30g serving provides over 5% of the daily value for B6, thiamin, niacin, and manganese, along with 2g of fiber and 2g of protein.
Comparative Nutritional Superiority: Compared to synthetically enriched wheat flour and ALL other nutritionally void starchy gluten-free options that have dominated the market for over 60 years, S.M.A.R.T. Blend naturally delivers more digestible vitamins and minerals.
Natural Ingredients: Sorghum and Millet are the superfoods, while Brown Rice serves as the ancient whole grain making up 60% of the blend. Arrowroot and Tapioca, the natural starches, make up the remaining 40%.
Allergen-Free: S.M.A.R.T. Blend is FREE from Gluten, Corn, Soy, Casein (dairy), Nuts, Peanuts, Pulses, and Legumes. Additionally, it is low in starch, containing no corn, potato, modified starches, and no white/sweet rice.
Traditional and Global Wisdom: S.M.A.R.T. Blend maintains a traditional growth approach and has been a staple in parts of India, Africa, China, and the tropics for centuries. This historical and nutritional heritage is why S.M.A.R.T. Blend was created. Today, Sorghum and Millet are often grown in the US, Brown Rice in Canada, and root vegetables like Arrowroot and Tapioca can be sourced from places like Thailand.
By embracing the natural integrity of these ingredients, S.M.A.R.T. Blend offers a unique, nutritious, and holistic approach to baking that stands out in the market.
Traditional Methods: Use old-school baking techniques for the best results. Sift the flour for lighter, fluffier baked goods.
Enhance Lightness: Add more lift and lightness with extra baking powder or a pinch more baking soda. Increase acidity by souring your dairy options with lemon juice or vinegar, or by adding apple cider vinegar.
Vegan Baking: Replace eggs by mixing 1 tablespoon of freshly ground chia and flax seeds with 1/4 cup of warm water. Let it sit until it forms a gelatinous texture, then add to your recipe.
Gluten-Free Considerations: Mix your recipes longer to achieve the right consistency and better blend the starches. For bread and pizza crusts, add additional xanthan gum and proof or rest the dough longer in a cooler setting.
Dairy-Free Options: Use coconut, almond, rice or oat milk. I prefer coconut for its fat content, or experiment with different options.
Bake with your senses and intuition, just like the delicate tastes and textures your mom used to create – now even better for you! Enjoy the added vitamins and minerals compared to enriched wheat flour and all gluten-free options. Listen to your favorite music, add a pinch of love, and some passion in everything you do.

Growing up, I struggled with a poor body image. Despite trying every diet imaginable, I found myself yo-yoing between 250 and 285 pounds. To maintain a healthy weight, I was constantly dieting and rigorously working out.
In 2008, driven by vanity and pride, I decided to lose over 90 pounds before my wedding, achieving a fit 190 pounds. I was on top of the world, exercising daily and eating healthily, convinced I would never gain the weight back. However, I soon started regaining weight, sometimes 6 to 8 pounds over a weekend.
I sought help from dietitians who taught me about Canada’s food guide, calorie counting, and exercise monitoring, but none could explain why I kept gaining weight. Frustrated and seeing my dreams slip away, I confronted my doctor. His dismissive response, attributing my weight gain to overeating and lack of exercise, was a shocking disappointment and a pivotal moment for me.
This experience led me to return to school and become a holistic nutritionist. I learned the crucial difference between counting calories and nourishing the body, the importance of digestion, and the impacts of consuming foods I was intolerant to. It wasn’t just about being overweight; I was inflamed and swollen from head to toe due to my reactions to major allergens and sugar in our food.
After completing my program, I decided to go gluten and dairy-free. I quickly realized that all the breads on the market shared similar ingredients, offering the nutrition profile of a biodegradable packing peanut and the taste of cardboard. This realization inspired me to create my own bread.
As a holistic nutritionist, I understood that most grains in North America had been scientifically altered—stripped, bleached, refined, processed, modified, genetically modified, or synthetically enriched. From my studies in Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine, I learned that we are healthiest when closest to nature. Mother Nature intended for us to digest and absorb her bounty, not scientific modifications.
This knowledge drove me to explore staple foods, superfoods, ancient whole grains and natural starches from other parts of the world—foods that had sustained populations in India, Africa, China, and the tropics for centuries. Thus, S.M.A.R.T. Blend was born.
My mission with S.M.A.R.T. Blend is to pay forward my learnings and help others like my daughter and I suffering from leaky gut, intolerances, sensitivities, autoimmune and inflammatory bowel diseases. By sharing the health benefits of S.M.A.R.T. Blend, I aim to provide a natural, nutritious alternative that truly nourishes the body with Natures’ food.
At Peetz, we believe in the power of nature’s bounty. S.M.A.R.T. Blend flourishes by being untouched by scientific alterations, ensuring that you and your loved ones can enjoy delicious, nutritious, and allergen-free baking that supports better health.
Join us in our journey towards better health and delicious baking with S.M.A.R.T. Blend.

(Sorghum, Millet, Arrowroot, Brown Rice, Tapioca) is easy to use and a great substitute for any flour, it works best as a one to one in traditional recipes, mom’s old-fashioned favorites or simply “ the best of” from the internet. The only umdraw back with having so much more vitamins and minerals than wheat and all gluten-free flour, is that S.M.A.R.T. Blend tends to be a little heavy and requires more traditional intuitive baking methods. Like sifting the flour, whipping your egg whites separately into sift peaks, and folding them in slowly, are some old-fashioned baking tricks that adds air and lightness. Also, as a rule I always use 1.5 to 2 times the liveners called for in the recipe, like double acting baking powder, cream of tartar, baking soda and yeast, along with apple cider vinegar to create more CO2 bubbles makes the best use of S.M.A.R.T. Blend and makes for lighter cakes or pastries.

Our story begins with PEETZ S.M.A.R.T. Blend flour. Formulated by Peter de Hoog R.H.N., a registered holistic nutritionist. When he could not find a nutritious all-purpose baking flour that was, low starch and provided digestible nutrients. An allergen-free blend that has NO gluten/wheat-free, corn, soy, casein/dairy, potato, white rice, or modified starches.
Sadly baking with competing flour, produced dry, cardboard-like, tasteless products that consist mostly of starches, with the ingredients and nutrition profile of a bio-degradable packing peanut at best. Starch, modified starches, and white rice are almost nutritionally void and offer very little in the way of vitamins, minerals, or fiber.
As a nutritionist “The market is saturated with gluten (wheat), corn, soy, potato, white rice, and modified starches. Most have been touched by science, either stripped, bleached, refined, processed, modified, genetically modified, or enriched,”
