About Coconut flour

Coconut flour is a gluten-free, grain-free flour made from dried, ground coconut meat, commonly used in baking and cooking. Originating from tropical regions where coconut is a staple, it has gained popularity worldwide for its unique nutritional profile. Rich in dietary fiber, coconut flour supports digestion and helps maintain steady blood sugar levels, making it a favorite among those following low-carb or keto diets. It’s also high in protein and healthy fats, contributing to sustained energy. Low in carbohydrates compared to traditional flours, it’s an excellent option for people managing diabetes or celiac disease. However, its high absorption rate requires special preparation techniques, often pairing it with extra liquid or eggs in recipes. Coconut flour brings a subtle hint of sweetness and nutty flavor to both sweet and savory dishes, making it a versatile ingredient in many cuisines, while promoting balanced nutrition.
