Ingredient groups to start with
Almond Flour
Grain-free and low-carb but behaves very differently. Needs a binding agent (extra egg). Produces dense, moist results. Not a 1:1 cup-for-cup swap.
Cassava Flour
Closest grain-free flour to all-purpose in function. Made from whole cassava root. Works in most recipes with only minor adjustments. No nutty taste.
Coconut Flour
Extremely absorbent — use only 1/4 the amount and add extra eggs and liquid. Has a subtle coconut flavor. Creates dense, moist baked goods.
