ALTERNATIVE!

flour. There are sooo many out
there. Do you have any suggestions?

A. I do indeed.
COCONUT FLOUR is shaping up to be a fantastic
alternative to grain based flours for many recipes. Coconut flour has unique properties which
include the following: Gluten-free, High
in dietary fiber, Good source of protein, Low in digestible carbohydrates,
Unrefined and Unbleached, 0 gm trans fat, Non-GMO, Vegan, Sustainable Source.
Coconut
flour has a light coconut flavor and a natural sweetness making it a delicious
choice to use in a variety of baked goods.
To substitute in a recipe using wheat flour, replace up to 25% with
coconut flour as well as an equal amount of liquid. If possible always purchase “Organic” coconut
flour. A good manufacturer with consistent
quality is COCONUT WORLD. It retails in stores and online for around
$6. to $7. For a 1 lb bag.
