Homemade Coconut Flour Recipe!

This coconut flour recipe is powdered coconut which has been processed - blended, strained, dehydrated and then blended again till it ressembles flour. Beleive it or not, this flour has a sweet coconut flavor that you will find it useful to add some few spoons in any baking recipe you feel like cookies or cakes etc.

 However I was so excited in preparing my own coconut milk so I've collected my processed coconut powder which comes from my fresh coconut milk recipe homemade coconut milk recipe

Ingredients:
2 cup processed coconut - blend fresh coconuts, strain all the liquid (milk) apart and use the pulp only means your processed coconut




Method:

Spread the processed coconut into your baking tray for dehydration in the oven. I have not use any non-stick or parchment paper as I do not find it necessary cause it does not stick when drying in oven. Turn on your oven on 100 degrees C, let the processed coconut dry for 2-3 hours 




After 2 hours, check whether you find the light brown (not brown) color over some parts of the powdered coconut which means your coconut powder is well dehydrated. You can dehydrate it simply by leaving it under the sunlight but it will take much longer than oven.




Now let it cool for a while and put it in a blender, blend for 5 - 6 minutes or until very thin almost like flour.






Store in an air tight container, you can use it for macaroons, cakes or cookies.
