Truefood – Organic Coconut Flour 400g
Truefood Organic Coconut Flour is a gluten-free, grain-free flour made from dried and ground coconut meat. It has become increasingly popular as an alternative to traditional wheat flour, especially in gluten-free and paleo diets.
- Ingredients: Coconut flour is made from dried and ground coconut meat.
- Texture: It has a fine, soft texture similar to other flours but is more absorbent due to its high fiber content.
- Flavor: Coconut flour has a mild, slightly sweet coconut flavor, which can add a subtle tropical essence to baked goods.
- Nutrition: It’s rich in fiber, healthy fats (including medium-chain triglycerides), and protein. Additionally, it’s low in carbohydrates, making it suitable for low-carb and keto diets.
- Gluten-Free: Naturally gluten-free, making it suitable for those with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease.
- Versatility: Coconut flour can be used in baking (cakes, muffins, cookies), as a coating for frying, in smoothies, and as a thickening agent for soups and sauces. However, it behaves differently from wheat flour due to its high absorbency, so recipes often require adjustments.
- Absorbency: Due to its high fiber content, coconut flour absorbs more liquid than traditional flours.
- Storage: Store it in an airtight container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight for a long shelf life.
- Health Benefits: Coconut flour supports digestive health (thanks to fiber) and provides energy and metabolism benefits (due to medium-chain triglycerides).
