Coconut Flakes

Coconut Flake is the thinly shredded or sliced dried white flesh of coconut widely used in tropical and Southeast Asian cuisines as a garnish, ingredient in desserts, granolas and curries. It is valued for its coconut aroma and chewy texture and appears both toasted and untoasted in recipes. As an ingredient, Coconut Flake is energy-dense and notable for containing 57g of saturated fat per 100g; it also provides substantial fiber, modest protein and minerals such as manganese and copper. Because it is mostly fat, it contributes richness and mouthfeel more than bulk or protein. Nutritionally, Coconut Flake is useful in small amounts to add flavor and fiber, but it should be used sparingly when limiting saturated fat intake; if you want a similar crunchy or nutty element with more unsaturated fat or protein, try one of the suggested swaps above.Read more
