I was excited to try out the Organic Coconut Flour I received from Tropical Traditions. A couple months ago I reviewed their Organic Virgin Coconut Oil and I have since fallen in love with using it for stir frying, baking, and basically using it anywhere I would otherwise use butter or oil.
Upon opening the flour it I swooned over the smell and had both my daughters and our neighbour smell it too. The coconut flour is made from 100% coconut so it smells divine. My neighbour and I discussed our approval of the high protein and fibre content of the flour and agreed it was a great new addition to my pantry and cooking and baking repertoire. Even though it is the consistency of regular grain flours you can eat it right off a spoon too. Yum! My daughter and I made these Pumpkin Coconut Squares and they turned out great. We devoured them within two days. I love that this flour is gluten-free which means I now have something to cook with to make cakes and bars for my gluten intolerant friends which I will enjoy too.
Check out the all the fantastic and helpful recipes at Tropical Traditions Free Coconut Recipes site.

I am so unfamiliar with their flour that it would take me a while to decide what to do with it. I can see it added to a pie crust, though…it would add a great flavor.

I’ve been wanting to make some coconut pancakes so that would be one thing I’d make, but those pumpkin bars look amazing so I’d give those a try as well!
i bake pretty much every day so there is a lot I could do with it. I like to make my children things like homemade muffins for their mid morning snack on school days here.

I would bake every good coconut flour recipe that I’ve seen (probably not- I’d probably stop at the first really good batch and make it over and over), because coconut is sooo good for you, and the only way that I can get my husband or my father to eat it is if I make some kind of really tasty dessert.

I will make coconut bread from cheeseslave’s recipe and “breaded” friend clams. I’ll also make some cupcakes inspired by the Livable Low Carb blog (now gone). She used beaten egg whites with the yolks and coconut flour folded in for a moist and spongy texture.
we are gluten free so i would bake like crazy with it.
