Composite flours may be considered firstly as blends of wheat and other flours for the production of (i) leavened breads, (ii) unleavened baked products, (iii) pastas, (iv) porridges, and (v) snack foods; or, secondly, wholly non-wheat blends of flours or meals, for the same purpose. (Chandra S, Singh S, Kumari D. Evaluation of functional properties of composite flours and sensorial attributes of composite flour biscuits. J Food Sci Technol. 2015 Jun;52(6):3681-8. doi: 10.1007/s13197-014-1427-2. Epub 2014 Jun 10. PMID: 26028751; PMCID: PMC4444897.)
Note
Composite flours are different from the ready-mixed flours familiar to millers and bakers. Whereas ready-mixed flours contain all the non-perishable constituents of the recipe for certain baked products. Composite flours are only a mixture of different vegetables flours rich in starch or protein, with or without wheat flour, for certain groups of bakery products.

DNA Barcoding Reveals the First Occurrence of Chrysanthe- mum Leafminer, Chromatomyia syngenesiae Hardy (Diptera: Agromyzidae) in India †. 10.3390/IECE-10569.)
