How to use coconut flour
I started cooking with coconut flour several years ago and I have to say, I wasn’t impressed at first. My bread and cookies were extremely dry and crumbled easily. Not so tasty!
After a lot of recipe testing, I found that there are a few things to keep in mind when baking with coconut flour.
- Coconut flour is very high in fiber and very different from wheat flour. When baking with coconut flour you only need to use 1/4 the amount of flour you would normally use in a recipe. For example, if your recipe calls for 1 cup of wheat flour you would only use 1/4 cup of coconut flour in that recipe. Coconut flour also soaks up liquid so you’ll need to add more milk or water anduse more eggs to bind the ingredients together.
- Eggs are a very important ingredient in coconut flour recipes because they bind the ingredients together. Without eggs, most coconut flour recipes will crumble apart.
- When making your batter allow the flour to soak up the liquid ingredients for 5-10 minutes. I find that my baked goods come out more evenly baked when I do this.
- Coconut flour can be a little clumpy. Sifting it before measuring can make a big difference in how well your recipe turns out.
Keto bread ingredients
I’ve already talked about coconut flour a fair bit, but it’s also worth emphasizing that buying the right coconut flour is important for a quality result. (You can also make your own coconut flour.) Same with coconut oil – for best results, when I have enough time, I will sometimes even make my own coconut oil at home. I also prefer to make my own baking powder when possible.
Aside from those, you just need a tiny bit of sea salt and one egg.
This recipe is delicious and straightforward. Enjoy!
