I just purchased a bag of coconut flour on a whimm while looking around in a specialty food store. I love baking and really do miss it, so I'm very excited to experiement with it. What are your favorite recipes using coconut flour?

These have kept my family from revolting against me turning our household Paleo: http://preppypaleo.blogspot.com/2012/03/paleo-lemon-poppy-seed-muffins.html

I double the recipe and make 12 regular-sized muffins.

You can pretty much modify any baking recipe to be paleo-friendly.

Regular flour = Coconut flour or almond flour.
Sugar = Raw Honey
Butter = Butter
Eggs = Eggs
Chocolate = Dark Chocolate (Personally I don't go under 85%)

I say paleo-friendly because it's not really paleo at all.. just healthier.

Coconut flour is VERY absorbent, so when adapting recipes, you need to use far less coconut flour than you would other flours. – MathGirl72 May 25 2012 at 12:43

Good to know, thanks. I don't bake much :) – CS May 25 2012 at 14:50
