YUMMY! I changed it up a bit….I split the honey and maple syrup to get a little sweet from both. I added 1/2 tsp of baking powder, 1/3 c. of white flour along with the coconut flour, I used only 6 eggs and a little less cinnamon. I also threw in a handful of cranberries.  Just great stuff!

I added pecans to the batter. They were Fabulous! Thanks so much for the recipe!

Could I use regular flour instead of coconut flour?

Could you make this in one loaf pan and add  like a tsp baking powder or soda and just cook a little longer?…I’m not a great baker so just experimenting and learning.

Just made this for the second time.  Made 1/2 batch with only 1 TBS honey.  Added Cayenne for a kick and fresh blackberries.  AWESOME!  Great recipe and taste!

Can I use egg substitute in your recipes?

Scott: Not really. You can measure out all the dry stuff first then add the wet but it won’t really matter.

Is there any particular order to mixing the ingredients?  Wet things first, etc.?

Yum!  Think I could throw in some fresh blueberries without ruining anything?

I meant to ask, is it correct that you use 5 tsp. of cinnamon?  It seems like a lot.  Just making sure it’s not a typo.

Oh, my goodness!  This looks like something my daughter will LOVE, and I won’t have to substitute ANYTHING because of allergies!  Thank you!

Nope, none. It’s a very dense bread. However, if you want you can add 1/2 teaspoon or so of baking soda/powder.
