Coconut Flour Brownies

I had purchased coconut flour some time ago, when it was on sale at Target with really no specific use in mind.  I read that coconut flour was a good high fiber, lower carbohydrate substitute for all purpose flour in baked goods and thought I'd give it a try sometime.

I stumbled across this brownie recipe a few weeks ago and I knew this was the recipe I was going to make to break in that bag of coconut flour.

Katrina is a baker at heart and I trust her judgement when it comes to baked goods, healthy or not...and Katrina's brownies certainly looked delicious, so why not?



I'll be experimenting more with my bag of coconut flour and share any success stories.
In the meantime, my family gobbled up these brownies and if you decide to make them,  you will too!
If you do give them a try, make sure you let me know what you think!
