When replacing wheat flour with coconut flour in a recipe, do you use the same amount? How about with almond flour? I'm ready to expand a little beyond meat, fish, eggs and veggies and add something baked, but I have no idea how to convert the flour quantities.
Thanks!
Barbara

Hi Barbara Coconut flour is super-absorbent so you need to use MUCH less. It kind of behaves differently and gives a different texture to your baking. I'd go have a look at some websites, e.g. www.againstallgrain.com or google "baking with coconut flour". Good luck and have fun.

Just a tip - if your inflammation is under control and you are willing to experiment..
try adding a little glutinous rice flour mixed in with the coconut flour. Some of us are finding we tolerate it well, and improves the texture of foods cooked with almond meal, and I expect it will do so with coconut flour too. Make end product more moist and soft.

I made the same mistake myself at first, I used too much coconut flour mixture and I could not cook almost anything.
