There are various recipes for zucchini fries at the like in parmesan, baked - or almond flour, etc. Most are tossed in a fat and coated and baked...This may be a silly question, but are almond flour and almond meal the same thing?
Almond flour tends to be a finer grind, but yes, essentially the same thing. Watch for which have the skins and wich don't. Some folks find they react to the skins.0 -
I had some prawns, dunked them in melted butter, roĺled in shredded coconut, lightly fried. Yum.
Thank you @lithezebra I may have missed a few steps but you inspired a tasty dinner. Will note recipe for next time.0 -
Ok so what would your top pick be for pancakes, Almond or coconut flour? My recipe calls for 32g of plain flour, Are the ratios the same for A and C flour?0

What mug cake recipe do you use?
I bought coconut flour when I first started keto but haven't used it yet. (Xylitol too, for that matter.) I'm lazy and mostly haven't ended up feeling a need for baked goods. Sweets, yes, but then I usually go with a dark chocolate square, cream cheese clouds, SF Jell-O, etc.0
