💭 faq
Coconut flour is the perfect flour for a keto diet. It's low in carbs and high in fiber and protein.
Coconut flour has 8g net carbs per ¼ cup. It might seem like a lot, but this is plenty of flour! In this recipe, a ¼ of the flour makes SIX coconut flour muffins.
Most baking powders bought in stores contain some sort of starch, so is technically not keto-friendly. If you're following a strict keto protocol, you can make your own baking powder using baking soda, cream of tartar, and tapioca starch.

I think there is a problem in the ingredient list - is one of the flour items supposed to be oil ?
