My oldest son has a wheat allergy and until just a few months ago that has meant goodbye to muffins and many other baked treats in our home. But...I finally found a natural and delicious alternative to wheat and grain that's packed with dietary fiber and is a good source of protein too!
It's coconut flour!!!! it can be found online or at health food stores.
If you are serious about living healthier, then you will want to consider coconut as a regular part of your diet. Fortunately when it comes to coconut, there are endless ways to indulge! The best way to experience the many health-giving gifts of coconut is to use virgin coconut oil. It's a small investment in your health that yields tremendous returns!
I believe Virgin coconut oil is one of the smartest oils you can eat. Rich in lauric acid, coconut oil contains NO trans fat, strengthens your immune system and boosts your metabolism!
I just came across this Coconut Flour Chocolate Cake recipe. Can't wait to make it!
