Our keto flour blend combines the perfect ratios of various flour substitutes, creating an easy and convenient gluten-free all-purpose mix to use in almost any recipe.
What Makes This Recipe So Good
- It uses small amounts of a few different ingredients, which makes each individual ingredient go farther and last longer. More bang for your buck!
- Almond flour tends to be heavy on its own, and coconut flour soaks up a lot of moisture. By combining the two with a couple of other ingredients, though, you get a perfect all-purpose blend that mimics traditional flour.
- Use it for baking! The coconut flour keeps baked goods fluffy without adding a coconut flavor.
- For most recipes, this blend can be subbed in at a 1-to-1 ratio. Depending on the recipe, you may find you need more or less of this blend, or you may need to adjust the liquids in your recipe. Don’t be afraid to experiment!
Key Ingredients
Oat Fiber – Oat fiber is a mild-tasting, fine powder made from grinding the hull (or shell) of oats. It’s great for adding fiber, which is super important on a keto diet.
Xanthan Gum – This is the binding and thickening agent in this keto flour blend. Since the other ingredients are gluten-free, xanthan gum is needed to make up for the lack of gluten.
Chef’s Tips
- You can totally swap ingredients or adjust the quantities to find the blend that works best for your preferences. Just keep in mind that any adjustments will make your final keto flour mix different from ours.
- The macros will vary depending on the specific brands of ingredients you use. As a general rule, always look for brands with the lowest carb count. That being said, you may find that you love a certain brand that comes out to be a carb or two higher than a brand you hate, so it’s worth it to eat that extra carb.
- Coconut flour soaks up a lot of moisture, so if you’re making substitutions, keep your total amount of coconut flour low.

Could you use psyllium fiber in place of the oat fiber? Or are they not similar in function?
Hi Fran! Psyllium fiber acts a bit differently than oat flour, so we’re not sure how that would turn out. Be sure to let us know if you try it!
I have a coconut allergy. What can I substitute for the coconut flour?
We haven’t tried any coconut flour substitutions in this recipe. Be sure to let us know if you try anything different!
