Coconut Flour Recipes: 40 Scrumptious Recipes
by Ready Recipe Books
Rating ***(3 stars)
Coconut Flour Recipes: 40 Scrumptious Recipes is a book which focuses on using coconut flour in cooking. I was extremely excited to find this book, since coconut flour has become my new fascination. The beginning of the book starts off with some nice information about the nutritional value of coconut flour. However, it should have been proof read better. It is repetitive! Perhaps each section was written by different people without any collaboration?
What I was really excited about was the recipes. 40 recipes is a pretty decent collection for a cookbook. It includes sections about breads, breakfast, appetizers, entrees, and of course desserts.
This cookbook is not exclusively Paleo. Most recipes can be easily modified to become Paleo. For example replace the butter with coconut oil. However, a lot of the recipes also use cheese, brown rice flour, and tapioca flour. I do not understand the bread recipe that calls for cheese, then uses coconut milk.
As of yet the only recipe that I have tried is the basic coconut flour bread. It is not a bread replacement, and the recipe is quite sweet. However, we have been enjoying it all week. I look forward to trying other recipes from this book.
If you want some ideas for using coconut flour, or some variety, then this is a great book.
