It is high in fiber to help with digestion. It has a variety of healthy fats which help your metabolism. Coconut flour is free from wheat and other grains, therefore it is gluten free and contains protein.

Coconut is very absorbent so a little bit goes a long way, it also helps to create a softer product but burns a lot quicker than most gluten free flours so be sure to keep an eye on your product. When baking with coconut flour, it works best to use an equal ratio of liquid to flour. It is a great alternative for someone who is allergic to nuts. Compared to nut flours such as almonds, coconut flour has less calories, and more fiber.
NOTE: 1 cup regular flour = 1/3 cup coconut flour
Coconut flour is a unique product and does not readily lend itself to direct substitution. If youre not a master grain-free baker, its usually best to look for a recipe specifically calling for whatever flour youre looking for, instead of trying to substitute one for another.
Keep Coconut flour in an airtight container away from moisture. In the freezer it will keep for many months.
