Sam's Club now has certified gluten free coconut flour! So I now have a 5 lb bag! What are your favorite ways to use it?

My favorite cupcake and carrot cake recipe.   I got the recipe from a friend who follows a Paleo diet and they have been the best I have tried.    Now I might have to go home and make some... :D

Coconut flour is VERY different from any other kind of flour! Don't try to substitute it for other flour in a recipe because it's so different that the recipe needs to be adjusted a lot. Coconut flour soaks up a ton of moisture. Typically you use a small amount of coconut flour and lots of eggs. Or it's mixed with other flours in a recipe. I tend to follow recipes pretty closely when baking, and especially so when using unfamiliar flours.

That said, I just baked something with coconut flour tonight: plantain biscuits!

Pancakes!

8 eggs (or sub in mashed bananas for some eggs)

1 3/4 c coconut milk

1/4 c coconut oil

1/4 c sprouted chia

1/2 c flax meal

1/4 c hemp seeds

about 1/3 to 1/2 c protein powder (vega chocolate)

dash salt

about 1/2 to 1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp cinnamon

1 tsp vanilla

 

These are hearty so I don't feel as guilty when my kids pour syrup on them.  LOL

 

This batter won't pour.  You need to drop it onto the pan and often spread it into a flatter shape. Freeze the extras to heat later in the microwave or toaster oven.

 

Edited to add to recipe: 1/2 c coconut flour.  Thank you Blessed Mommy LOL

Nicole, am I missing something? I don't see any coconut flour in that recipe.

Mine is recently since my  use of it has been Apple muffins with walnuts.  Honestly the best ones I have ever had before.

I've used it in two recipes by Karina the Gluten Free Goddess - pumpkin cake bars and pumpkin cookies.  Both recipes turned out great!

      Thanks @Beverage for checking in!  I haven't changed the dogs' food yet.  I'm still working through some of the other issues that I need to remedy (transitioning to an anti-inflammatory diet, being sure to get only gluten-free certified items, and buying some new cookware for my kitchen).  Somewhere after that, I have on my list to try out the dogs on a new dog food, but I haven't gotten there yet.  In the meantime, though, I can definitely see that some of my worst days seem to follow when there's a possibility of gluten cross-contamination (I'm still working to cut waaay down on these instances) OR when I eat anything with dairy/ milk protein in it.  So I think I need to really get a better handle on my day-to-day eating habits to reduce all gluten cross-contamination into my food and also any dairy intake, and then at that point, I think I'll start moving over to the dog food thing.

      Sounds like fun, and I was in Germany a few years ago so you might find these articles helpful:

      I just want to mention that we summarize the latest research on refractory celiac disease here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/refractory-celiac-disease-collagenous-sprue/

      I don't think you have the URL/site address correct, as there is nothing at that site.

      Hello All I am traveling to Germany in October and will be in Berlin, Rothenburg ODT , Salzburg, Fussen and Munich.  I am also driving the northern part of the romantic road with stops in some of the smaller towns along the way.  I would really appreciate any recommendations for gluten-free friendly places, restaurants and any gluten-free beer gardens.  Thanks in advance, Laura
