Morning Pep
Coconut Flour
Have you heard about coconut flour? Its made from organic coconuts, gluten free, and non GMO. Morning Pep coconut flour is made from 100% pure organic coconuts. Also its vegan, kosher, and USDA certified. This is my first time trying coconut flour and I must say I was really impressed. It has the same look and feel as regular all purpose flour, but has a sweet taste with a slight hint of coconut flavor. Here's a few of the many reasons why coconut flour will now be a permanent fixture in my kitchen from now on:
Coconut flour is non allergenic
High in protein & metabolism nourishing fat
Doesn't require soaking like grain flour
A little goes a long way
Contains enzyme inhibitors
Coconut flour contains no problematic starches, enzyme inhibitors, phytic acid and/or non-heat stable fats.
Coconut flour is really easy to cook with and gives delicious results. Here are a few easy recipes to for you to try:
Fluffly Coconut Flour Pancakes
Ingredients
- 4 eggs, room temperature
- 1 cup milk (raw cow’s or coconut both work)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon honey or a pinch of stevia
- 1/2 cup coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- coconut oil or butter for frying
Directions
- Preheat griddle over medium-low heat. In a small bowl beat eggs until frothy, about two minutes. Mix in milk, vanilla, and honey or stevia.
- In a medium-sized bowl combine coconut flour, baking soda, and sea salt and whisk together. Stir wet mixture into dry until coconut flour is incorporated.
- Grease pan with butter or coconut oil. Ladle a few tablespoons of batter into pan for each pancake. Spread out slightly with the back of a spoon. The pancakes should be 2-3 inches in diameter and fairly thick. Cook for a few minutes on each side, until the tops dry out slightly and the bottoms start to brown. Flip and cook an additional 2-3 minutes.
- Serve hot with butter, coconut oil, honey, syrup, or fruit.
Be sure to check out other great recipes on Pinterest and just by searching the internet. I found both of these with very little effort and they are both delicious. Morning Pep coconut flour can be found in two sizes which are 4 and 1 pound bags.
Both sizes can be purchased from Amazon.com with these links:
I made this beautiful and delicious homemade cake with replacing white flour with coconut flour. Covered with a light and refreshing cool whip and crushed pineapple icing topped with fresh strawberries. The slight hint of coconut made this cake even more delicious and a big hit in my house. I received this product in exchange for my honest and unbiased review of it.
