You could use coconut flour instead of almond flour, but you would have to use more liquid (In this recipe eggs or cream). Test Kitchen Tips from the website: To substitute coconut flour for regular flour in a recipe, follow these guidelines: Begin by replacing a quarter of the flour with coconut flour. You’ll always need to add extra liquid equal to the coconut flour you’ve added, as coconut flour absorbs 4 times its weight in liquid. The batter will often seem thicker than the consistency you’re used to, but don’t worry, this is normal. Cookies or pancakes will spread less than usual (we recommend using a spoon to spread them instead of thinning the batter). We love adding coconut flour to our smoothies as a thickener, but be sure to blend the coconut flour with a liquid first, to allow it to absorb liquid and prevent gritty texture. Hope this helps and Happy Baking! JoAnn@KAF
