Ingredients

  • 1 cup coconut flour
  • 1/2 cup coconut milk

Recipe Tips

  • Make sure to knead the dough well, as this will help the arepas hold together better.
  • If the dough is too dry, add a little more water or coconut milk to it.
  • If the arepas are too thick, they will take longer to cook and may not be as crispy. Flatten them out more next time.
  • If you don't have coconut flour, you can use regular flour or cornmeal instead, but the flavor will be different.

Enjoy these delicious Puerto Rican Arepas de Coco for breakfast, snack, or as a sandwich base!
