Hello Meredith, what is your recommendation for a substitution for the coconut flour? Also, I am finding that the monk fruit-to-stevia ratio is 1/4 cup of monk fruit to 1 to 2 teaspoons of stevia. Does this sound about right to you?

For a flour swap, 1/4 cup coconut flour is = to 1 cup all their flours because of the higher absorbency rate with coconut. Coconut is my go to because it’s low carb, high fiber, and low fat unlike any other flour. And yes, that ratio for sweeteners sounds right to me. You can always add more but can’t take too much away.
