I am a nut for coconut. Coconut ice cream, coconut pie, coconut milk, coconut daiquiris, coconut-crusted chicken, etc. Anything coconut is welcome in my belly.
Imagine my delight in discovering coconut flour as an alternative to wheat flour.
Bob’s Red Mill says it better than I can:
“Coconut Flour is a delicious, healthy alternative to wheat and other grain flours. It is very high in fiber, low in digestible carbohydrates, a good source of protein and gluten free. It lends baked goods an incomparably rich texture and a unique, natural sweetness.”
Knock yourself out by using Bob’s Red Mill coconut flour, organic shredded coconut, and imitation coconut extract as key ingredients for coconut muffins.
You can be a coconut nut too by downloading coconut recipes from the Piccadilly Books PDF file: www.simplycoconut.com/Coco%20Flour%20Recipes.pdf
Go nuts!
