Coconut flour blueberry bread is a game-changer for those with gluten intolerance or sensitivity.
This recipe is made with coconut flour, which is a low-carb and high-fiber alternative to traditional wheat flour.
Coconut flour absorbs liquid differently than traditional flour, so the ratio of liquid to flour is crucial.
To make this bread, you'll need to use a 1:1 ratio of eggs to liquid, which is a key factor in achieving the right consistency.
The result is a moist and delicious bread that's perfect for a quick breakfast or snack.
Ingredients
When working with coconut flour, it's essential to sift it well to remove any lumps. This is especially important when using 1/3 cup of sifted coconut flour, as mentioned in Example 1.
You'll also need some baking powder, which is used in a variety of recipes. In the case of coconut flour blueberry bread, 1/2 tsp of baking powder is a good starting point, as seen in Example 1.

The type of sugar you use can greatly impact the flavor of your bread. Maple syrup is a popular choice, and using 1/4 cup of it, as in Example 1, will give your bread a rich, caramel-like flavor.
Coconut milk is another key ingredient in coconut flour blueberry bread. You can use 1/4 cup of coconut milk, as mentioned in Example 1, or even coconut cream, which is used in Example 3.
Here's a summary of the wet ingredients you'll need for coconut flour blueberry bread:
- 4 eggs (Example 1)
- 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract (Example 1)
- 1/4 cup maple syrup (Example 1)
- 1/4 cup coconut milk (Example 1)
- 1/4 cup melted coconut oil (Example 1)
- 3 large eggs (Example 2)
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup (Example 2)
- 3/4 cup fresh blueberries (Example 2)
- 5 room temperature eggs (Example 3)
- 1/2 cup coconut milk (Example 3)
- 1 t vanilla extract (Example 3)
In addition to the wet ingredients, you'll also need some dry ingredients, including coconut flour, almond flour, and baking soda. A good starting point is to use 1/3 cup of coconut flour and 1 1/3 cups of almond flour, as mentioned in Example 2.
Preparation
Coconut flour is notorious for its ability to soak up liquid, so we go heavy on the liquids and light on the flour in this recipe.
To make the most of your coconut flour, it's essential to sift it together with the other flours. This simple step will add a ton of volume to your end result.
Don't forget to break up any clumps in the coconut flour before whisking it with the other dry ingredients. Coconut flour does tend to clump up a bit, so this is an important first step.
To prepare your pan, grease it well and consider using a parchment paper sling to help with removal. If you do use parchment paper, be sure to grease it as well.
Here are the key preparation tips to keep in mind:
- Grease your pan well.
- Whisk dry ingredients together first, breaking up any clumps.
- Make sure to melt the coconut oil, but not too hot, so it doesn't cook the eggs.
- Use fresh egg whites for a lighter bread, or carton egg whites if you prefer.
Bring ingredients to room temperature
Taking the time to bring your ingredients to room temperature can make a big difference in the final result.
Eggs and ghee are much easier to work with at room temperature. They'll whip up and mix together smoothly, without any lumps or resistance.
Room temperature coconut milk is also much easier to whisk, and it won't cool down the other ingredients. This helps prevent a dense or flat final product.
You'll notice the benefits in the texture and consistency of your finished dish. The air trapped in the ingredients expands in the oven, creating a light and soft texture.
Sift Your
Sifting your coconut flour is a crucial step in adding volume to your end result. This small act can make a big difference.
Coconut flour is notorious for its ability to soak up liquid, so it's essential to mix the batter only until just incorporated.
Lemon Bread
To make a delicious lemon bread, you'll need to preheat your oven to 350°F.
Preparation is key, and in this case, it's essential to prepare a loaf pan by placing a piece of parchment paper inside. This will make it easier to remove the bread once it's done baking.

To create a beautiful marbled effect, you can gently fold the blueberries into the batter. This will ensure that the blueberries are evenly distributed throughout the bread.
A key ingredient in this recipe is coconut flour, which pairs perfectly with the sweetness of blueberries. You'll need ¾ cup of coconut flour to make this bread.
Here's a list of the ingredients you'll need to make this lemon bread:
- 6 large eggs
- ½ cup coconut oil
- 1/3 cup maple syrup
- 4 T freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 2 T lemon zest + 2 T more for topping
- ½ t salt
- 1 t baking soda
- ½ cup tapioca flour
- ¾ cup coconut flour
- ½ cup fresh blueberries + more for topping
To ensure the bread turns out perfectly, it's crucial to bake it for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Recipe
To make this coconut flour blueberry bread, you'll want to start by greasing your pan well - it's essential to prevent the bread from sticking.
I've found that using a parchment paper sling can help with this, but be sure to grease the parchment as well. This will make it easier to remove the bread once it's done.
Whisking the dry ingredients together first is crucial, especially when working with coconut flour, which tends to clump up.
To ensure the proper texture, don't skip the protein powder - you can use whey protein if you're not dairy-free.
When mixing the ingredients, make sure the coconut oil is melted but not hot, as this can cook the eggs and affect the texture.
Fresh egg whites are always a good choice for baking, but carton egg whites will still work in a pinch.
If you're not dairy-free, you can substitute the coconut oil with melted butter for a different flavor.
