Description

Almond Flour and Coconut Flour are the commonly used keto flours. Here I show you how to make coconut flour at home. If almond flour is too expensive (especially in India), making coconut flour is relatively inexpensive! You can make keto rotis with coconut flour, that pairs well with Indian curries.

Ingredients
  • 1 cup Coconut (Fresh or Frozen)
  • 1 cup Water
    • Keto Coconut Flour Roti
  • 1/4 cup Coconut Flour (homemade)
  • 1 tablespoon Psyllium Husk (I used the Sat Isabgol Brand)
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/4 cup Water
  • 1 teaspoon Oil (I use Avocado Oil)
Instructions

  1. Add 1 cup coconut pieces (fresh or frozen) to a grinder jar along with 1 cup of water

  2. Grind to a paste

  3. Strain the paste through an absorbent cloth and squeeze out as much coconut milk as possible

  4. You can use left over coconut milk to make delicious curries! https://ketocurries.com/index.php/recipe/how-to-make-keto-chicken-curry-with-coconut-milk-kerala-style/

  5. Spread the ground coconut on a baking tray lined with parchment paper

  6. Dry the coconut at 200F for 45 min

  7. Give it a stir every 15 min so the flour dries out thoroughly

  8. Let the coconut come to room temperature

  9. Transfer the coconut to a grinder jar

    Do not overfill the jar. That could lead to overheating and the flour could turn oily

  10. Pulse the flour 5-6 times, scrape off any flour stuck to the walls of the grinder jar and repeating pulsing until a fine powder is formed.

  11. Store coconut flour in the refrigerator or freezer in an air tight container
