Coconut Flour Breads

Coconut Flour Cheese Biscuits


by: http://untilthethinladysings.blogspot.com

makes 8 biscuits

Ingredients:
4 eggs 
1/4 cup of coconut oil, or butter 
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/8 teaspoon cayenne powder 
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder 
1/3 cup sifted coconut flour
3/4 cup shredded cheese

Blend together eggs, oil/butter, salt, and spices.  Combine coconut flour and baking powder and whisk into batter until there are no lumps.  Fold in cheese. Drop batter by spoonfuls onto a greased baking sheet a few inches part- these spread.  
Bake at 400˚F  for 15 minutes.  
As with all coconut flour recipes, you can store tightly covered on the counter for 1 -2 days, then transfer to the refrigerator.  In humid climates, it will get more moist the first day then quickly go towards moldy, so transfer earlier.  In dry climates, I hear it can get drier- in that case, maybe transfer to fridge earlier.

Coconut Flour Bread


Plain
By: http://dawnsdailychocolate.blogspot.com/
Ingredients:

3/4 cup of coconut flour (sift)
1/2 cup of butter
6-7 whole eggs
1 pkt of stevia
1 tsp baking powder
I also added a little unsweetened almond breeze 1/4 c
1tbsp of Braggs apple cider vinegar (helps keep it moist)

**Note: on all the coconut flour websites it says for every 1/4 cup of flour - use 2 eggs. when they refer to liquid, they mean eggs. If it is a bit dry it says to add more liquid. That's why I use 7 eggs.

For a different flavor: use 12-13  packs of stevia and either 2 tbsp of cinnamon or Girhadeli's unsweetened chocolate powder and some crushed walnuts. 

I made some with: 2 tbsp of Girhadeli's and 1 tbsp of Maple extract and walnuts...Very Good!

For lemon Breaduse 12 stevia, 6 eggs, 2 tsp of baking powder, 1 tbsp of ea. vanilla and lemon extract, 3 tbsp of lemon juice, and about 2 tbsp of cream cheese.  
when done, after slicing, serve with cream cheese and blackberries on top - YUM!
this is the butter I use. I use it straight out of the fridge, it's soft.
I mix together in a food processor and put the eggs on the bottom, it mixes better that way.

Use Parchment paper to line the bottom of your pan. It will come out much easier that way.

Bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes (maybe less), check with a toothpick

I used this coconut flour that I found at Henry's market - now becoming Sprouts.
http://coconutsecret.com/flour2.html It says refrigerate after opening, so be aware of that. 

It says 2 tbsp has 1 gm of sugar, 9 gm of carbs, 8 gms of Fiber. 
I measured 9 tbsp in 3/4 cup for the recipe. 

for the whole loaf
4 1/2 gms of sugar 
45 gms of carbs
40 gms of fiber

so if you slice the loaf into 12 slices = 2 slices per serving = 
each serving has: less than 1 gm of sugar, 8 carbs, 7 fiber

1/2 cup melted butter
3/4 cup coconut flour (sift)
pinch of salt
1 T. Braggs apple cider vinegar
1 t. baking soda

(I use a food processor w/the dough attachment)
Add the 1/2 cup of melted butter, mix well again.
Add the 3/4 cup of coconut flour (sift) and the pinch of salt. Mix well again. Your batter will be fairly thick.
Add 1 T. of apple cider vinegar and 1 t. of baking soda. Mix again just until blended.
Add approximately one cup of grated zucchini.  I used one zucchini.
Add 1/2 cup of shredded cheese. 
mix the zucchini and cheese into the batter and then spread the batter evenly into the pan.
After the batter is spread into the pan, trim the excess paper evenly with the top of the pan.
Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for about 50 minutes. A toothpick inserted in the center will come out slightly moist, but with no batter adhering to it. The top will be slightly golden

Coconut Flour "Tortillas"

From: http://dawnsdailychocolate.blogspot.com/

Servings: 1 tortilla
Preparation Time: 2 minutes
  • 1 tablespoon coconut flour
  • 1/16 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 egg whites (or, 3 tablespoons egg whites)
  • 2 tablespoons water or coconut milk*
  • coconut oil/butter
Mix the coconut flour and baking powder with the water (or milk) and egg whites.
Whisk or blend until all lumps disappear (I usually mix, then wait a couple of minutes and mix again).
Pour all the batter on a heated pan greased with coconut oil or butter (grease well).
Pour batter in center of pan. Tilt the pan around to spread the batter into a large circle, almost covering the entire bottom of the pan.
Be very careful with this part: wait until the edges are brown on the side of the tortilla, or carefully circle spatula around the bottom of tortilla until safe to flip. Once safe, flip the tortilla and cook for about 30 seconds on the other side.

Some tips if you are having trouble

  • First make sure that you are staying under the 15/6. 15 sugars and 6 servings of carbs for the whole day. Thats no more than 5 sugars and 2 servings of carbs per meal.
  • Track all of your sugar/carbs. Add everything from your meal together and count them that way.
  • Try to stop eating whole grain carbs after 3pm.
  • Make sure you drink lots of water.
  • Count everything that you put into your mouth. Even sauces - everything , check labels.
  • Make sure that you don't eat any artificial sugars. Check labels, if it says sugar free - look in the ingredients, look for....sucralose, aspartame, saccharine in the ingredients. Those are BAD!
  • Going #2 is a big problem when a lot of people start the BFC. I have solved that problem with Clear Benefiber in my morning coffee and a scoop of Super Seed w/water in the afternoon. (you can buy the super seed on Amazon.com it is the cheapest).
  • Choose your carbs wisely. Try to pick the carbs that will give you the lowest count of carbs, sugar and calories and the most fiber.

I hope this helps.
