Coconut Flour Recipes

Yesterday I was in Whole Foods and a fellow Celiac shopper talked about how much she likes coconut flour and recommended a bread recipe with lots of eggs. Has anyone tried this recipe and did you like it? One comment online said it has an eggy taste.

Anyone have other coconut flour recipes that you like? I understand you can't substitute it one to one for other flours. I found the recipe below on several websites. This is from one of them:

Coconut Flour Bread

Ingredients

• 6 eggs

• 1/2 cup melted coconut oil or butter or Ghee

• 1-2 tablespoons honey (optional, I usually leave it out)

• 1 tsp baking powder, optional

• 1/2 teaspoon sea salt

• 3/4 cup coconut flour

Directions

1. Mix all ingredients together and pour into a small buttered loaf pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes.

2. Turn the loaf out and cool completely on a rack before serving. That’s it! Enjoy.

Actually, I ended up baking mine for 50 minutes, but I'd check at 40, because my oven seems to take a tad longer to bake.

Comments about the bread from someone who tried it (?): This is a somewhat eggy-tasting bread, so if you don't care for that kind of taste, this might not be for you.

I was afraid the bread would be dry, because previous experience with coconut flour yielded a very dry product (the OMM, for instance), but this is not the least bit dry, probably due to the large amount of egg and butter. I think that even my dh will like this. It does not taste like coconut.

What other flours do you use in the recipe? Also, could you share the ratio to the amt. of flour called for to how much coconut flour to use?

I used this recipe from this site:

Instead of using lined muffin tins I made it into three mini loaves. It is very good.

I've made coconut bread, I use the Cooking with Coconut Flour Cookbook by Bruce Fife. It's awesome.

I've also made chocolate cookies, chocolate chip coconut cookies, chocolate cupcakes and pancakes. Oddly, there was no chocolate in the pancakes. ;)

Coconut flour is very tasty. And although it's expensive (I pay $10 for 2 pounds) most recipes only need a small amount of it, so that 2 pounds lasts quite a while.

It's somebody's birthday at work Friday, so I'm going to make some chocolate chip cookies :D

Sounds good! Just wondering if there any recipes using only egg whites (aside from meringues or macaroons)? DH doesn't like whole eggs & seems to be sensitive to the yolks but not the whites (really).

      Hi @KathyR37 and a very warm welcome here. I am so very sorry that you are going through all of this. I just wanted to check, have you ever been tested for any other gastrointestinal conditions? Cristiana

      @KathyR37, I would suspect that in addition to gluten intolerance, you have other food intolerances/sensitivities. This is very common in the celiac community. The most common offenders are oats, dairy, soy, corn and eggs with dairy and oats being the big two. Have you considered this? Have you tried keeping a food diary to detect patterns?

      thank you for your advice. I have always taken them and I use Stonehedge because they are in a glass bottle, but don't have to be refrigerated. I also like they are 3rd party tested and state gluten free. But you never know if something better has come alone over the years.

      Thank you for your response. I have already learned about the info you sent but i appreciate your effort. I am the only one in my family cursed by this disease. I have to cook for them too. I make sure that my utensils are free of gluten and clean after using them for other food. I use non-porous pots and pans and gloves when cooking for them. One huge problem...

      Thank you for your response. I have already learned about the info you sent but i appreciate your effort. I am the only one in my family cursed by this disease. I have to cook for them too. I make sure that my utensils are free of gluten and clean after using them for other food. I use non-porous pots and pans and  gloves when cooking for them. One huge problem I have is a gag reflex out of this world and if something doesn't taste good it is not going down. Most commercially made breads and such taste like old cardboard.Pastas are about the same. I did find one flour that I like and use it regularly, but it is so expensive! All gluten free food is way more expensive. I only eat twice a day because I cannot afford to buy all that. We live on a very low income so my food purchases are quite limited.

      What you've described—the severe weight loss, the cycle of medications making things worse, and the profound fear of eating before leaving the house—is a heavy burden to carry for 15 years. It is absolutely not your fault. While everyone's journey with celiac is different, the struggles with the learning curve, social isolation, and dietary grief are feelings many in the community know all too well. Your question about whether you should just eat what you want and manage the symptoms is a heartbreaking one, born from years of frustration. It's crucial to know that the diarrhea is a sign of ongoing damage to your small intestine from gluten, and simply managing the symptom with Imodium doesn't stop that internal harm or the risk of other complications. The fact that you are still getting sick within an hour of eating, even while trying to be gluten-free, is a huge red flag that something isn't right. This could be due to cross-contamination in your kitchen (e.g., using a shared toaster, colander, or condiment jars), hidden gluten in foods, or the possibility of another concurrent condition like refractory celiac disease. Don't give up!  This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
