This keto protein flour has proven to be quite the interesting experiment with some fabulous success.

I came across a video of someone on a Facebook group talking about dehydrated chicken flour and they had a video of them quite simply blending their dehydrated chicken into a flour/meal.  It totally got me thinking as I was interested to know how it work in applications for keto recipes.

Now let me first say it is best used in simple recipes as a substitute for almond meal.  It is an easy straightforward swap in recipes like a fathead dough pizza base or pastry substitute moreso than a bread.  While we have tested in a bread it is not recommended as it was just a little “weird,” but using it as a flatbread, pie crust and pastry has turned out fabulous as you can see from the images below.  I would like to say thank you to Lynda Watters and Robyn McEvoy for the use of their images and pie.

These images are of a straight fathead dough using the protein flour instead of almond meal and baked in the oven.

How good does this pie look?

Lynda achieved a perfect seal on the sides too lol.

A perfect protein fathead dough toastie by Robyn.  She described it as very yummy and also had keto and non-keto kids try it out.  We got  4/5 rating so I guess it is pretty good.  lol.

Anyway as everyone is chomping at the bit I have released this recipe, even while we are now experimenting with dehydrating some cooked chicken as well to see how that mills and cooks as well.

As I said at first this has become a very interesting test with already some great results.  The idea of having a flour option to substitute for allergies and intolerances is kind of exciting.  I will update this post with the additional test of the cooked chicken.

Also please note the nutritional is for the complete batch of dehydrated chicken.

If you need to purchase a dehydrator I have noticed that Froothie have $100 off the Excalibur and a sale of their own brand as well.
