Gluten Free Low Carb Coconut Bread

http://www.healthyfitmom.com

I created a low carb grain free recipe that my kids and I enjoy.

Here is the recipe:
1 cup of ground dessicated coconut
1/4 ground golden flax meal
5 pastured organic eggs
1/4 cup of coconut oil
1/4 teaspoon of baking soda
1/4 teaspoon of salt
2 drops of non bitter stevia

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix together coconut, flax, salt and baking soda. Mix well enough so most of the lumps are gone. Add wet ingredients (eggs, stevia, coconut oil). Mix well again. Place batter in a buttered pan. Bake for 30-35 minutes until knife comes out clean.

when you say dessicated coconut, what exactly is dessicated coconut?

[healthyfitmom]

@razzyripple dessicated coconut is the same as unsweetened shredded coconut.

I watched another video that suggested if you don't have eggs you could substitute 1 tablespoon of applesauce for each egg.  I am going to try this with your recipe and see how it goes.

[healthyfitmom]

I would not try applesauce as an egg replacement in this recipe. If you use grain flour applesauce replaces eggs just fine but coconut does not contain gluten so it needs the egg for binding the bread.

@healthyfitmom So it would be 11 net carbs for the whole loaf of bread? Nice! :D

Hi Catherine, this looks like a really interesting recipe to try, but a few of the instructions were spoken away from the camera and inaudible. Please speak louder or be sure you are facing the camera when you comment. One thing I missed was your recommendation for a substitute oil. At any rate, I'll give it a try. Thanks for the recipe.

@manbearpigme dessicated coconut is basically just shredded coconut. i.e. the flesh of the coconut, finely shredded. I guess it must have been dried out in the preparation process, too. It's really easy to find in most food stores. Good luck! :)

@healthyfitmom The egg is like the "glue" to hold all of the ingredients in the same neighborhood. Applesauces and honeys create a milder sweetness than straight on sugar or even aguave. You can also soak some fruits (red raisins, or maybe currents in a little bowl with a few drops of rum extract with a tsp of honey and .5 tsp of Apple Cider Vinegar for 10 minutes to have some real bang. Add the fruits last - just fold them in and watch your friends smile.... :)
