Tropical Traditions organic coconut flour is fiber from the coconut meat after most of the oil has been extracted to make Virgin Coconut Oil. It is certified organic, unsweetened, and has not been treated with sulfites. Tropical Traditions organic coconut flour is high in dietary fiber and protein, and is gluten-free. It has more fiber than gluten-based grains. Tropical Traditions organic coconut flour can be added to standard wheat-based recipes to add extra fiber, by substituting 10-30% of the grain-based flour with our coconut flour. Some recipes, such as muffins and quick breads, can be accomplished with 100% Tropical Traditions organic coconut flour and therefore be 100% gluten-free! Since organic coconut flour contains natural sugar from the coconut meat, baked goods need less sugar added. The organic coconut flour has a mildly sweet coconut taste! Tropical Traditions organic coconut flour also contains over 19% non-gluten protein! Therefore, it makes an excellent addition to shakes and smoothies where fiber and protein are needed. Or simply dissolve a spoonful in water as a high-fiber drink with a coconut flavor! This organic coconut flour is very versatile and very tasty. Sprinkle it over your favorite dishes to add a wonderful coconut flavor, use it as a thickener in soups and sauces - the possibilities are endless!

Coconut "Skim Milk" with Mico Fiber
Place one cup of coconut flour into a 4-5 quart crock pot. Bring one quart of purified water to a boil and mix into the coconut flour. Cover crock pot and cook on Low Heat for 2-1/2 hours, stirring once. Remove lid and let ingredients cool. Strain ingredients through a nylon "Nut-Milk" bag, gently squeezing. Pour the liquid into a glass jar and refrigerate. Compost the coconut pulp. This recipe makes about 1 quart of sweet-tasting coconut milk. Micro fiber will eventually fall to the bottom of the jar, so stir before drinking.To clean the Nut-Milk bag after use, wash out the fiber under a kitchen faucet. Fill a 3-quart pan half-full with purified water and add the bag. Boil the bag for ten minutes, flipping the bag over after five minutes. Carefully hang the bag where it can dry, before storing it.

Tropical Traditons Coconut Flour
Excellent quality and well packaged. Top notch fine flour (powder of dried coconut) smells heavenly and you can use in your cookie or other recipes. I find I can just add about 2 heaping TBS in place of some flour to my regular choc chip cookie recipe or peanut butter for added flavor and fiber. I have also added into my homemade pound cake recipes. And here I have compensated by adding a tad more liquid in the way of egg or sour creme etc to keep the moistness. I would highly recommend this product. So glad it's organic too. Quite a nice size bag even for me, as much as I bake. I'm sure you can add this powder to some smoothie drinks for a great boost of flavor and fiber. I did try a few of the coconut flour recipes but found they were too dense and chalky/fibery for my tastebuds. I'm into sweet treats that taste good, so that's why I am having success adding just a little here and there. If you plan to use it as a flour substitute, you may need to use tried and true recipes for quality taste and texture of baked goods.

Tropical Traditions Coconut Flour
New to using coconut flour for cooking. I have enjoyed the product in baking muffins so far.I am not sure for frying. I tried it once, but was not happy with the result. I think my coconut oil was not hot enough when I began cooking so that may account for it. I will try it again for frying and maybe post another comment.

Dense Flour
This is my first time using coconut flour. I found that it was as finely powdered as regular flour. However I will have to get use to how dense it becomes when I use it for cooking. I tried to make waffles and they were extremely heavy, but bread-like, which makes me think it'd be ideal just for that purpose. They would probably make really crunchy croutons, too.

Just loving it!
I ordered this product twice and enjoy the quality of the coconut flour. It is especially delicious when mixed in the blender with my smoothies, and it taste great when hooking up some pancakes. My concern is when I 1st ordered this product in December 2010, Tropical Traditions made sure to deliver one that expired December 2011. However, when I decided to re-order their product in October 2011 they sent me one that expires in July 2012, which is obviously a big mistake on their part. I hope that they could send me a yearly one, when I re-order it again this year.

Best coconut flour and smells so wonderful!
I have recently ventured into the world of Gluten Free Baking and this flour is part of my pantry now. It is very light and fluffy and smells so divine. So far I only made Gluten Free Crepes and though they came out a bit dry I really did like them. I do have a recipe for Banana Bread and I think the addition of this flour will be great. Again, did I mention the divine smell? I love coconut and this flour packs a lot of fiber too which is an added bonus. I would definitely recommend this product.

Gluten free
I ordered the flour because I needed something that would be low carb and diabetes friendly. An internet search had resulted in some dessert recipes that suggested several traditional flour alternatives, one of which was the Coconut flour. I had difficulty finding the flour locally and was surprised to locate it on Amazon. I plan to order again, as this product is reasonably priced, and has proven to be a good value. Each additional use of the Coconut flour has yielded better results as I learn how to use this in my diet.

Coconut Flour
I used the Tropical Traditions Organic Coconut Flour in 1 recipe so far for a coconut orange cake. It was good, but a bit dense. I will continue to experiment with different recipes as I know this flour is much better for you than the regular processed flour. Happy buying!
