20 Coconut Flour Recipes To Stay Full While Losing Weight

 

 Coconut flour is getting easier to find – probably because people are realizing its greatness. As long as you can find coconut flour you can make these great dishes for every meals. From pizzas to pecan breakfast bars these dishes are delights. 

Gluten-free? Check. Nut allergies? A-ok. Coconut flour is a more nutritious alternative to traditional flours, has no nuts or grains, and is extremely healthy. High in fiber, and great for regulating blood sugars, coconut flour is totally diabetic-friendly. Coconut flour has properties that keep your metabolism and digestion working perfectly.
The main thing to remember when using coconut flour is that it is super absorbent. The rule of thumb is to use ¼-⅓ a cup of coconut flour in place of 1 cup grain-based flour. Adding extra moisture is necessary – doubling (or tripling) the eggs in your recipes will keep the moisture content up and your baked goods soft and moist.






Gluten-free but have a taste for the sweet stuff? These brownies are the perfect introduction to coconut flour – super easy to make, and even easier to eat. The only hard thing is resisting them!
