Coconut flour is one of the healthier flours you can use when cooking or baking. It is made from the meat of the coconut after the oils and milk have been extracted. This flour is hypoallergenic and gluten free, and it tastes sweet and slightly nutty without the overpowering taste of coconut. You can use coconut flour as a substitute for other flours you may use in your recipes as long as you know how to mix the flour in.
Mix your wet ingredients as directed by your recipe. Add double the eggs or water. Do not double both. Keep the wet ingredients separate from the dry ingredients.
Put your flour in a separate mixing bowl. Substitute 10 percent to 30 percent of the flour with coconut flour. Add the rest of the dry ingredients to the flour.
Mix the wet ingredients and the dry ingredients with a hand mixer or spoon as directed by the recipe.
Pour into a dish and bake as directed. Allow the dish to cool before consumption.
