What Is Breadfruit?
From Fruit to Flour
Breadfruit is a nutritious tropical fruit that's been enjoyed across the Pacific, Caribbean, Africa, and parts of Southeast Asia for generations. Once dried and milled into flour, it creates delicious baked goods that lets ingredients like chocolate, strawberry, and matcha shine. At Ananas, it's the foundation of every cookie, brownie, blondie, and Mookie we make.
