Coconut Flour Bread, Low- Carb Coconut Bread
by Tarla Dalal
Coconut flour, an ingredient that is readily available at gourmet stores and online shops like Amazon.in, is a gluten-free, protein-rich flour that is ideal for low-carb diets.
You can also make it at home using our recipe. Here, we have used coconut flour to make a healthy loaf of bread, which is gluten-free, dairy-free and low-carb.
Although it is slightly dense, the Coconut Flour Bread tastes awesome and is good for making toast. The bread is slightly sweet, and may be enjoyed plain or with eggs.
You can also dab some yummy homemade coconut butter on the toast, to make a complete, healthy breakfast that is rich in protein and good fats.
Once the coconut flour is added to the bread, it will absorb the eggs and become thick. Not to worry about this, your bread will turn out okay. You can store the bread at room temperature for about 4-5 days. When refrigerated, the shelf life is about 15-20 days.

Hi, Ibam following gluten free diet. In the recipe for coconut flour bread can we make non sweet bread by skipping honey? On the same note can I incorprate sundried tomatoes in the same recipe?
Edited after original posting.
Hello! I tried this recipe. Unfortunately the bread was too dry to my liking. Also, I thought the dough was a bit dry (more like cookie dough mixture). I omitted the honey though. But I dont think that made the difference. Does it require more liquid? The calories per slice caught my attention. Any suggestion on how to make this bread moist. Thank you.
