I probably could have even used a lot less coconut flour than I did in this recipe.Haalohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03291206056540101155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20759216.post-18334846172241777932008-02-15T22:27:00.000+01:002008-02-15T22:27:00.000+01:00What a great idea.

But even more exciting - it's gluten-free! yes! And contains several of my favorite flavors and ingredients. I love using coconut flour - I usually use it in small quantities with other gluten-free flours, but I have also created some recipes that use it alone or only compliment it with a ByTheBayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06670549761665347741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20759216.post-59839221498224541082008-02-04T17:29:00.000+01:002008-02-04T17:29:00.000+01:00I've never had friands before.
