What is Spelt?
Planeta Zdorovia Whole Crushed Spelt, 700 g is a simple pantry staple for people who want a more interesting grain than regular wheat or rice. Spelt is an ancient type of wheat with a mild, slightly nutty taste and a pleasantly hearty texture. In crushed form, it cooks faster than whole grains, so it works well for warm porridge, grain bowls and filling side dishes.
Key Benefits
People often choose spelt when they want a cereal that brings both carbohydrates for energy and a notable amount of protein. This product also fits meals where you want something more substantial than refined grains. Because the grain is only crushed rather than heavily processed, it keeps its characteristic taste and a denser bite. That makes it easy to pair with both sweet additions such as berries, fruit or cinnamon, and savoury ingredients such as vegetables, herbs or mushrooms.
- Energy: provides carbohydrates for energy
- Protein: contains a notable amount of protein
- Substantial texture: denser bite compared to refined grains
How to Use
As a healthy food option in the porridge and breakfast category, crushed spelt is convenient for several situations: a warm morning meal, a base for lunch bowls, or a cooked grain to serve instead of pasta or potatoes. If you like varied textures in your menu, this kind of cereal can help broaden it without making cooking complicated. Its neutral taste also makes it a practical ingredient for family meals.
- Warm porridge: cooks faster than whole grains
- Grain bowls: base for lunch bowls
- Side dishes: filling accompaniment
- Breakfast: warm morning meal
- Lunch: base for lunch bowls
- Alternative to pasta or potatoes: served instead of pasta or potatoes
Important Note
Spelt is a type of wheat and contains gluten, so it is not suitable for people who avoid gluten or are sensitive to wheat.

Customer Questions
Planeta Zdorovia Whole Crushed Spelt is prepared similarly to other whole grains like rice or quinoa, but it cooks faster than whole spelt grains due to being crushed. Rinse the spelt briefly under cold water. For a standard porridge or side dish, use a ratio of about 1 part crushed spelt to 2.5–3 parts water or broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for 20–30 minutes, or until the grains are tender and have absorbed most of the liquid. Let it sit covered for 5 minutes after turning off the heat to finish absorbing moisture. The texture when cooked is pleasantly hearty and dense with a satisfying, slight chewiness – it holds its shape well and doesn't become mushy like instant oats, making it ideal for grain bowls where you want distinct texture. You can adjust liquid and cooking time for a softer porridge or a firmer, pilaf-like result. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking, especially towards the end of cooking.
Spelt, as an ancient type of wheat, naturally contains a notable amount of plant-based protein. While exact percentages aren't specified for this product, spelt generally has a protein content comparable to or slightly higher than common modern wheat and significantly more than white rice. It can be a useful component in a diet focused on whole-food protein sources. To use it for this purpose, incorporate it as the carbohydrate base in meals where you want both energy and protein. For example, use it as a porridge topped with nuts and seeds, or as a base in lunch bowls combined with legumes like lentils or chickpeas, which together can provide a broader range of amino acids. Its mild, slightly nutty taste and substantial texture make it a versatile carrier for other protein-rich ingredients like tofu, tempeh, or cheese. Remember that for most people, achieving adequate protein is about the totality of your diet across the day. This crushed spelt is a convenient and wholesome option to include in that rotation, but it is not a substitute for a varied and balanced diet. It contains gluten, so it is not suitable for those with gluten-related disorders.
While the primary uses highlighted are for warm porridge, grain bowls, and side dishes, crushed spelt can be creatively incorporated into some baking. Its form—crushed rather than milled into a fine flour—means it adds a hearty, chewy texture and a mild, nutty flavor. You can use a portion of it (e.g., replacing up to one-quarter of the flour) in recipes for dense, hearty breads, muffins, or crackers to add whole-grain substance. It also works well sprinkled on top of bread loaves or rolls before baking for added crunch. For most conventional baking that requires a good rise and light texture, you will need to combine it with regular wheat flour (which has the necessary gluten structure) as using 100% crushed spelt will result in a very dense product. It is not a direct substitute for instant oats in all recipes, as it retains more bite. Experiment by starting with small additions to familiar recipes like banana bread or scones. As a general pantry staple, its versatility extends beyond the pot, allowing you to broaden texture and flavor in your homemade baking.
