Are there any recipes that use both almond flour and coconut flour? I like the texture of each separately but would love to try some baked goods that incorporate both flours in one. I think the texture would be great! I've considered trying on my own but have no idea where to start. :) Any suggestions?

Everything I keep reading about coconut flour says that you can replace any other flour by 10-30% with coconut flour and it will give the same wonderful texture of Wheat flour but with much higher protien and fiber but a lower glycemic index count. Post how it turns out if you try it.

Here's my report back:
I tried a Zucchini Coconut Bread recipe and it turned out ok. The almond flour + coconut flour combo was wonderful. The muffins had a great texture and it is definitely an experiment that I will be repeating! The reason they were only "ok" is that I was also making some other adjustments and the level of sweetness and amount of zucchini was a bit off.
So, the original recipe called for white flour. I took the amount called for (2 cups) and subbed 1.5 cups almond flour and .5 cup sifted coconut flour. I had read that coconut flour is good to sub at about 30% so I wanted to go a little light just in case. I think 25% was a good amount - maybe even a little less would be good.
Happy experimenting!
