About Flour, coconut

Coconut flour is made from the dried, defatted meat of the coconut, ground into a soft, pale powder. Naturally gluten-free and grain-free, it has become popular in low-carb, paleo and gluten-free baking, lending a faint coconut sweetness to cakes, pancakes and muffins.

At roughly 438 calories per 100 grams of dry flour, its defining feature is an exceptionally high fiber content — among the highest of any flour — which keeps its net digestible carbohydrate relatively low. It also supplies a fair amount of plant protein, iron and potassium. Because it is so absorbent, recipes use only a small amount and pair it with plenty of eggs and liquid.

Coconut flour behaves quite unlike wheat flour: it soaks up enormous amounts of moisture and contains no gluten, so it cannot be swapped in one-for-one. Used in recipes designed for it, though, it produces surprisingly tender, light baked goods, and a little goes a remarkably long way.
