Coconut flour? Yes or no?

[NatashaSaysRawr 16]

2 months out and wondering if I can have coconut flour or oat flour? instead of taken in regular flour since it's much healthier. I'm asking because I been making Protein Bars which is very healthy and I wanted to make Protein muffins, only thing is, it's asking for coconut flour or baking soda, I wanna make sure I don't ever take in baking soda, baking powder and regular flour ever again

I was using coconut flour 2 months out without any problem. I used it for thickening, mainly. Great substitute!

Why not baking soda or baking powder? What don't I know about these lol

Are they bad for us?

You're going to have a hard time making those muffins rise without any leavening.

So much yay. Also, almond meal or almond flour is a great option!

I found a Protein pancake mix called kodiac cakes at costco and albertsons. I use that for my muffins with eggs, milk, and any fruit or nuts. It's a mix of flours with a great punch of Protein. It might be a good option too
