I love how humble you are, you didn't boast about your flour not once. Rather you showed us WHY this flour will help us. Thank you for the education too, I learned so much. You gave evidence of why you're saying what you're saying. I know that with a zero total carb flour there's no way we wont lose weight. You're amazing!

I used your CK (chicken) flour to make fried fish! Spectacular!! Process: Seasoned fish, dredged in Bamboo Fiber, then beaten egg with a little water, and finally dredged in your CK Flour. Let sit on a baking rack for 15 mins and then fried in Avocado oil using a cast iron skillet. Hubby said if I had not told him, he would have believed it was fried in seasoned white flour. Delicious!

Mel you are a genius!! I just mixed my first batch of your almond flour. I then used the flour to make your bun/ bread recipe . This is the first time in 5 years that a bread product actually tastes like, feels like and stays together like a bread product!!!! I am so in love! I am in America and was using a recipe that an American lady made. I was disappointed in how her recipe turned out. So I started searching KZbin and found you. I am so happy I did. I see lots of baking in my future now. Thank you!!

Thanks for this awesome recipe Mel! Take it from me: please save yourself the aggravation and simply purchase your egg white powder. Don't try to make it yourself unless you get your eggs for free and you have loads of patience and plenty of time. I yielded only 8oz of egg white powder from 5 dozen egg whites after dehydrating the messy liquid in my Excalibur. Gigantic pain in the butt process which took many hours of clean up AND turned out more expensive than buying the ready made egg white powder (which costs a fortune in Canada). I ended up paying 3.25/oz of powder and you can buy ready made for just over 2$/oz (in Canada).

[@CookwithMel1]

Oh man...I already tried it Tanya...utter disaster!! I feel like I just didn't have the right equipment too, but yes the process let's you experience the fill range of emotions 🤣

I have a friend who literally tested positive for every single food-including chicken and beef. I encouraged her to try beef that is grass FINISHED in case her reaction to beef was because the cow was fed corn -which is highly allergic to many people-for many different reasons.

[@CookwithMel1]

Thanks for sharing.❤️ I wonder what she eats then 🤔

[@kaakrepwhatever]

I cannot eat mass-produced eggs because I get an inflammatory reaction, but pasture-raised eggs are fine. I am sensitive to grains and soybeans, which I presume the chickens are fed, and the protein I react to must be passed into the eggs.

[@eo4wellness]

Chicken, eggs, corn, soy, tomato allergies are unfortunately common. I've met many people allergic to one or more of these.

I love this! It’s so easy to make your own chicken flour. Boil some chicken breasts, then stick them in a dehydrator @150 degrees Fahrenheit for about 6 to 7 hours. Grind the pieces in a coffee grinder or high power blender.

[@CookwithMel1]

[@healthhollow7218]

Can I use canned chicken? I have a dehydrator 😊

[@CookwithMel1]

Set the oven temp to 320f/160c and line a baking sheet. Drain the water from the chicken as best you can, then spread the chicken evenly across the baking sheet. Let it bake for 20 minutes and stir so that the underside can also dehydrate. Please repeat after another 20 minutes. The chicken is ready when it's hard and dry. The go ahead with grinding and bake one more time to ensure it's dry. Grind again and sift.

This sounds great. I make my own chicken flour from chicken breasts I buy on sale, simmer until cooked, chop in the food processor, dry in a 170F oven until crunchy, and grind in an Indian spice mill. (a blender will do) I can't use commercial eggs because I react to them, but I can dehydrate my own egg whites. Just started a dozen, wonder what I'm going to do with all those yolks...

[@CookwithMel1]

Oh wow very nice. With the yolks you could freeze them and use to thicken sauces or you could make custard and freeze. Here is a Custard mug recipe: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bmiTdnuaa5WtaZYsi=0gCAKpOdeMq3YklO

[@kaakrepwhatever]

@@CookwithMel1 I found your recipe to be a bit more meaty in texture and drier than I would like for my bread-like substance. Here's what I did. All ingredients should be at room temperature. 4 eggs 4 oz cream cheese 4 tablespoon butter 1 tablespoon yeast 1 tsp inulin (to feed the yeast) 1 tsp baking powder 1/2 cup flour blend 1/2 tsp salt Mash together the cream cheese and butter. Give it a few seconds in the microwave if it is still too firm to mix smoothly. Beat together with the eggs. Mix the inulin and yeast together. Mix in with the eggs and allow to rest at room temperature for about 15 minutes. Now add flour, salt, and baking powder. Pour into a greased bread pan. Allow to rise in a warm place until it has doubled in height. I put mine in my dehydrator at 115F. Bake at 340F for 50 minutes. This recipe makes enough batter to make a small pullman loaf. Just multiply or divide to make a muffin or fill a larger loaf pan. I have made this with both pork and chicken flour. Coming up: Shrimp garlic toast made with powdered shrimp.

I only added enough yogurt and flaxmeal to get a consistency similar to play dough. It pressed out well by hand and the crust doesn't crumble or fold. However - do add some garlic and onion powder to the dough. I thought I would let you work out a good recipe since you developed the flour.

But please keep in mind that because you're using beef flour the results will be similar to the beef in color. I hope you like them, thanks 😊

I made a double batch of CK (almond flour) Keto Flour this afternoon. Waiting on UPS to deliver my Pullman pan. Tomorrow morning early (before my first “live”) I plan to make a loaf of bread. Forecast to be 105° real temp here in central Texas. Ovens are not used often. 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️😂

I actually do. The color, texture, taste and health benefits come to mind.

[@barbarakeeler1740]

Can I use half lupin and half almond flour for ck flour. That would cut the carbs even more

[@CookwithMel1]

Yes you can Barbara, but only of you're comfortable adding a little water if needed to get the consistency right. You may already know that Lupin flour is more absorbant than Almond so you will need to take that into account. And then certainly...you can use your CK Flour with all my recipes that use Almond flour or CK Flour or any other recipe using Almond flour. It turns out way better.

[@tex1622]

Hi Mel, I made chicken flour for the first time today. 1.5kg of chicken breast yielded just 240g of flour - yikes! It's a lot of work for such a tiny amount. I then made a wrap in the microwave and it tasted strongly of chicken, and I while I ground the flour and sifted it into a fine powder, I could easily detect the chicken fibres too. Is this true for you too? I adore you and appreciate all your incredible experiments and creations, so thank you! I just wish I liked this more, because the idea behind it and the macros are amazing! 😊

[@CookwithMel1]

Hi Tex..well done. For me 2.2kg of chicken is enough. If you find the chicken overpowering you can add almond flour to the flour. I've tried half and half and it's really good. By the way which wrap recipe did you use please? Sometimes I do detect chicken fibers, I've had that happen twice. I'm working on yeasted recipes at the moment and amazingly...no fibers. Have you considered using the CK Bread Recipe to make wraps but do half almond and half chicken...I think you will like it better. Thanks so much Tex...appreciate it 😊😊😊

Hey Mel! You're using the words bamboo fiber and bamboo flour interchangeable but I just watched a video from a channel called Bamboo Batu and he said the two are not interchangeable. The flour is made from the shoots of bamboo and the fiber is made from the whole plant. Anyway, the product you linked is for the fiber so I just wanted to be sure that's what you meant and to also let other people know there's a difference 😉. Blessings!

[@CookwithMel1]

Ohhhhhh! Thanks for that. I will go look it up so I can learn about that too.

[@brendaboysel9296]

I made the chicken flour. Weighed all ingredients in grams. The single large cookie recipe was dry and very dense. I will bake less next time. But it was still very dry as well. 🤔wonder if the bamboo fiber needed more liquid and that was part of the problem. Anyone else had a similar result?

[@CookwithMel1]

I have noticed that we need to lower the temperature by about 15 to 20 degrees and keep an eye on it towards the end as it needs a little less time to bake.

If I substitute Almond Flour for the Chicken Flour - do I use the same weight of Almond Flour or other nut flours? Also - when using the almond CK flour instead of the chicken - how much more of the almond flour would I use?

[@CookwithMel1]

Hello Elena. You would use 360g of any nut or meat flour. Some are more absorbant than others, Coconut Flour is chicken flour is more so than almond. So when we use those in a recipe we just add more water.

[@shawn4357]

What can I use instead of bamboo fiber, to make it carnivore?

[@CookwithMel1]

Hello Shawn. I'm wondering if pork rinds would work but it's not tested yet. It's very hard for me to get it here so that's the issue there. Sadly all the regular substitutes arnt carnivore either. However...bamboo fiber helps to regulate cholesterol, contains silica which helps hair, skin and nails and other benefits. In effect it assists with a few common problems as a result of doing carnivore. So...do we just wait until I get the pork rinds? 🤣

[@nanaurbiznez1725]

Can you use carbalose as a substitute for the bamboo fiber?

TIP: Since Mel will be utilizing her new flour blend with chicken flour......I bought four bags of chicken flour. You could buy something like $112 worth which you will save money with the $99 for free shipping plus when it is over $100....the 10% works better! So something like $112 will be like about $100 for five products! If you buy a little less than $100, that the 10% off is not as much plus you would pay almost $5 to $9 dollars for shipping.

Can I substitute: psyllium husk for bamboo fiber; and use almond flour in place of both: chicken flour and white egg protein powder? Just want to make this recepie more affordable and simple.

[@CookwithMel1]

Hello...I haven't tried substituting the bamboo fiber with psyllium husk because I feel like that would've turned all baking to a brown color. You can use almond flour instead of chicken flour...lots of us do. However not so for the egg white protein powder. I think the only alternative that may work is meringue powder. If you imagine what happens in baking....almond flour is just ground almonds but eggs in baking help the baked goods to fluff up and rise.
