Gram flour is made from ground chick peas (garbanzos) which are a pulse, whereas white flour is made from ground wheat which is a grain. Gram flour has a higher protein content than wheat flour but does not contain gluten and therefore cannot so easily be used to make bread or crepes or any baked products that need to rise or hold together when cooked.
