Can you use coconut flour instead of almond flour in making fat head pizza?

I would think that the coconut flour would impart a different taste and also soak up more moisture so you would have to add an extra egg. Never tried it though!0

I've heard that you can but it may make it very dry if you don't add extra moisture it's worth trying though. Let us know how it turns out if you do make it that way.0

Sugar Free Mom has a recipe for fathead pizza that is nut-flour free, she uses coconut flour instead because her son is allergic to tree nuts - http://www.sugarfreemom.com/recipes/grain-free-nut-free-low-carb-pizza/2

I've heard you're supposed use less coconut flour and add an extra egg.
Somewhere (I think Pinterest) I saw a graphic that had different special flours and how much to adjust each to fit standard recipes.1 -
Thanks everyone. I am going to give it a try.2

Thanks for this. My son has a tree nut allergy and I hadn't experimented with coconut flour yet.
This will help! 0 -
I tried sugar free mom's recipe one time and liked it. I didn't have tapioca flour so substituted flax meal and it still came out good.0
