Coconut Flour Is Not a 1:1 Substitute for White Flour A quarter cup of coconut flour contains roughly 6 grams of net carbs. Again, this might sound high, but a quarter cup coconut flour might be all a given recipe contains. For example, if you bake an entire batch of cookies and only use a 1/4 cup of coconut flour, each cookie will contain just 0.5 grams of net carbs — not bad for something that satisfies your sweet tooth. As long as you’re learning about keto baking, here are a few other tips you should keep in mind: Don’t use it as a direct substitute for white flour: This is the number one mistake most people make when experimenting with keto baking. White flour and coconut flour are completely different ingredients.
Use a lot of eggs: Coconut flour is an incredibly dense ingredient due to its high-fat content. To make the fluffy, tasty treats you’re used to; you may need more eggs to balance out the batter. Don’t be alarmed if a recipe calls for 4–6 eggs. Use a hybrid of flours: As a general rule, recipes that call for two types of flours are usually the best. By using a combination of almond flour and coconut flour, you will find the texture to be most similar to a “regular” baked good.
Other Ways to Cook With Coconut Flour Coconut flour is more versatile than you might think. You can use coconut flour for virtually anything you previously used white flour for, and it won’t necessarily taste like coconut.
Use coconut flour as a high-protein, low carb option for:
Breaded chicken fingers and other meat
Grain-free pizza crust
Low-carb bread
To bind keto meatballs or meatloaf
Thicken soups and stews
Coconut-flour sandwich wraps
To add bulk to burgers
