Recently in CostaRica I attended a ridiculously informative coffee tour @ToledoCoffee for less than a tenth of the other advertised tour prices. The farmer talked for almost 75 minutes, starting with how 70% of the bean is waste!! I ended up buying lots of coffee and, yup, coffee flour. I discovered that TraderJoe’s also carries it and, of course, Amazon. I’m about to branch out from cookies & brownies to breading on fowl and meats! It’s the least I can do!

We were given some coffee flour samples today and I'm really keen to find recipes and give it a try. Even when we open the jar and smell the flour, you can definitely pick that dried fig flavour. Two of our girls said "I'm getting sultanas". That rich, dried fruit flavour will be an interesting one to add to chocolate biscuits, banana bread, ginger cookies, etc, etc!

Plan to use it instead of almond flour as a crust for cheesecake for Passover. Will update with results in a few weeks.

Yep we make flour out of all kinds of things but coffee flour is a new one on me. Will have to try it sometime. In the meantime making lots of upcycled juicing pulp flour from carrot, apple, ginger to bake into carrot cakes and other sweet treats.

This is begging to be tested in a sticky toffee pudding recipe. I wonder how a recipe with all coffee flour and no fruit would compare to stp.

From the experimentation I've done with it so far, 100% coffee flour is a no go. It needs to be combined with other flours just like any gluten free flour.

I worked on a Kona coffee farm last September-November and the farmer I was working for had heard about this, so we dried some of our cherries and I made flour out of them! I only baked with it once (so far) and agree about the very distinct flavor but I'm so excited to see you guys trying this out at Food52! I'll have to play around again and let you know if I come up with anything!

Where would you get coffee flour and how is it best kept for sustaining flavor and quality.

Hi Debra, coffee flour is a brand-new product so it's currently only available for purchase online at Marx Pantry. And it comes in an airtight canister for maintaining flavor. Let me know if you end up trying it!
