So surprising!

Coconut flour?!
Questions:
What do you do with it?
Any recipe suggestions or links?
And...can you do it on induction?
Finally...
Happy Canada all!

No nuts on Induction (but hey, it's only 2 weeks). You will see, if you check your Induction Foods list - available from your copy of the DANDR book or even from atkins.com, and probably discussed and posted a gazillion times in the Atkins forum here - no nuts on the list.

There's stuff in the Kitchen Talk forum about how to use it and even some recipes. There's recipes in the Recipes forums, too, best bet is the Baked Goods and/or Sweet Treats, but there's way cool "Contents" posts at the top of each one that has links, and the SEARCH feature - keep it to the forum you're looking out so you don't get too many answers - is very very helpful.

Stuff as simple as adding a Tbsp to a homemade protein shake to adding it to LC muffins.

Way too much to go into here, but I know you will enjoy the journey.

Welcome!

Found 2 brands of Coconut Flour at Lifestyles Market (a fab HFS) on Douglas Street last night. Both 500g (2.2 lbs), both good brands, the Wilderness Family Naturals at 8.99, the other at 9.99. In the packaged bulk foods section where prebagged gluten flour and xantham gum and such stuff, as well as Baking Supplies (per the overhead signage) are located.

Super.

Checked every Save-on foods between Vancouver and the edge of the world (and that's quite a few) and found no coconut flour. Oh well, I had already bought some in Calgary. Ahhhhh sleeping in my own bed tonight. If the cat lets me!
