ratio.
Sometimes the

I wouldn't suggest
almond flour because it would create different liquid
ratios in this recipe.
Elana would it come out the same if you use part coconut
flour and part
almond flour, if so what

I'm not crazy about baked goods using either one alone; however, I recently found a biscuit recipe that used both (the
ratio was something like 1.5 cups
almond flour to 2 tablespoons coconut
flour).
Grind the oats in the blender really fine into a

ratio than the
almond flour.
Coconut
flour is much more absorbent than
almond meal, so a 1 to 1
ratio wouldn't work here.
I would need to sub out the buckwheat
flour though — would the
ratio be the same if I used all
almond flour?
I may try different
ratios of
almond flour to rice
flour or use arroworoot next time.
Hmm I'm not sure in this case what would be best — you might want to try millet or sorghum
flour, but you may have to play with some of the other
ratios as those
flours will absorb liquids differently than
almond meal would, and wouldn't have the fat content of
almond meal.
Almond flour will produce a different texture and you will need to play around with your
ratios for that.
Coconut
flour is a 1:2

I would have to test the recipe several times to get the right
ratio of

Although I haven't tried it in this recipe, in most baked goods you can substitute coconut

I forget the

almond flour, and for the reason you stated.
And knowing that
almond flour has a higher fat content but is less dense than wheat
flour, I basically switched this
ratio around.
For most of my recipes, I still use a combination of

Almond meal can be substituted in a 1:1
ratio with
flour, however, don't expect it to rise like a normal cake!

flour soaks up much more moisture, so the
ratio when substituting with
almond or white
flour will not be 1:1.
You can try substituting with the other
flours and it should turn out okay texture wise (however the
ratio of coconut
flour to
almond flour is 1:2).
So the 1:2
ratio means 1 part coconut
flour to 2 parts
almond flour (or 1/2).
I've been experimenting with the best

You can try increasing the
almond flour by 1/2 cup in place of the coconut
flour - I can't guarantee it will come out perfectly because I haven't tried it and coconut
flour can't be replaced in a 1 to 1
ratio.
It does not have a 1 to 1 replacement
ratio with
almond flour, so you would have to experiment with it a bit.
