Notes
This recipe has been updated in March 2019.
*Please note* This recipe has been updated since first posting, and many people were confused
about whether to use baking soda or baking powder. Please read below:
The reason is that if you accidentally use too much regular baking powder, it can turn a green colour in the
bottom section of the bread.
Baking powder with aluminium reacts to acidic ingredients like coconut, causing this greenish colour
and what many people find to be a “tinny” or metallic taste.
Fortunately, this doesn't make the bread harmful to eat, it just might look a little strange. It's perfectly
fine to eat.
To make this keto coconut bread dairy free, all you have to do is substitute the butter with olive oil.
I've tried this and it works very well, although admittedly doesn't taste quite as good as using butter.
Coconut oil would also work, but I prefer using olive oil as it has a better taste (especially because you
are already using coconut flour in the mix).
