Why are peanuts oily?

Some store bought peanuts are coated in an oil by the producer, which oil I'm not sure as a google search came up inconclusive. I know that prunes are sometimes coated in mineral oil, which is not so great for your digestion. Some other peanuts are sold without oil, which may be the healthier choice if it is, in fact, mineral oil.

If you're talking about peanut oil, it's just like sunflower oil and olive oil: it's just naturally produced by the plant.

How many almonds in one tablespoon almond meal?

Almond meal is a healthy, gluten-free alternative to regular wheat flour, and makes a great addition to many recipes. However, baking with almond meal is very different than baking with regular flour, and a direct substitution is not always a good way to get the results you want. Almond meal is simply finely ground almonds, and has a higher fat and moisture content than wheat flour. It also lacks the gluten that holds conventional baked goods together. You need to consider all of these factors when replacing wheat flour with almond meal.

If you simply want to add a little almond meal to your conventional recipes to make them more moist and flavorful, you can use it in a 1:1 ratio. However, most sources suggest replacing no more than about 25% of the regular flour with almond flour. Conventional recipes rely on the gluten in wheat flour to bind the baked goods together and make them rise properly. If you reduce the regular flour, and thus the gluten, too much, your final results can be crumbly and flat.

When making recipes with almond meal alone, you need about 25% to 50% more than regular flour. This means that 1 tablespoon of regular flour equals 1 ¼ to 1 ½ tablespoons of almond flour. But you also need to change the other ingredients to make up for the increased fat content and the lack of gluten. Most almond flour recipes call for twice the number of eggs of conventional recipes, in addition to twice the amount of leavening agents like baking soda or baking powder. This ensures that the baked goods rise properly and bind together. Many recipes also use xanthan or guar gum to simulate the binding properties of gluten. The higher fat content of almond meal means you need to reduce the oil or butter by about half, and you may need to reduce the other liquid ingredients as well.

Almond meal weighs significantly less than wheat flour when measured at the same volume. Cup for cup, almond meal measures almost a full ounce less than most grain-based flour. Many people find it easier to adapt recipes that measure the flour by weight rather than volume. However, the majority of recipes in the US list ingredients by cups and tablespoons, so you may want to invest in a good kitchen scale to convert conventional recipes.
