I don’t have coconut flour on hand. Can I make this recipe with a different flour?

Because coconut flour absorbs liquid quite differently as compared to other flours, such as all-purpose, whole wheat, gluten-free flour blends, or almond flour, etc., we don’t recommend using a substitution. For the best outcome, use coconut flour in these avocado brownies. Plus, coconut flour comes with some impressive nutrition benefits that you won’t want to miss out on: a great source of fiber and a good source of protein, potassium, and iron.
