Bambara Beans is considered a nutrient-dense legume often called a complete food. Packed with 65% carbohydrates, 18% protein, and rich in essential amino acids (including isoleucine, lysine, leucine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, and valine), these beans rival the nutritional profile of soy bean, making them an excellent plant-based protein source for vegans, vegetarians, and health enthusiasts.

Taste & Appearance

Bambara beans are chickpea-sized, hard, and round seeds that naturally ripen underground. The seeds come in a stunning variety of colors from black, brown, red, cream, and white or a combination of these colours.

Bambara beans offer a nutty, earthy flavor, similar to a cross between chickpeas and pinto beans.

Applications

Bambara beans are prepared in a number of ways.

  • Boiled or roasted as a wholesome snack.
  • Mixed with maize or plantains for hearty meals.
  • Ground into flour for porridge, soups, or nutritious bread. The flour is used as a thickener in soups or added into bread dough for extra nutrition.
  • Transformed into dairy-free milk or fermented into a tempeh-like product.
  • Cold-pressed for oil extraction.


Whether you’re looking to create nourishing meals, bake protein-rich breads, or explore plant-based milk alternatives, Bambara beans are a must-have pantry staple.
