The cost of coconut flour is actually deceiving. It costs much less than you might think. Instead of looking at the dry product and comparing it to wheat flour, you should look at how much product it makes in comparison. For example, to make 6 muffins it only takes ¼ cup of coconut flour. However, it takes a full cup of wheat flour to make the same amount. This is basically true for all baked goods. So in essence, you get four times as much from coconut flour as you do from wheat flour. When comparing cost you need to factor this in. So the cost of the coconut flour, in comparison to wheat flour, is only a fourth. If a package of coconut flour costs $5 per pound, divide that by 4 and you get $1.25 per pound. This price compares very well with wheat flour.
I did a brief search on the Internet and found whole wheat flour selling for $1-2 per pound and organic whole wheat flour selling from $3-6. Most coconut flour available is organic. So it is actually cheaper than organic whole wheat flour and about the same as non-organic wheat flour.
Also you can find coconut flour at most health food stores so you don't have to pay for shipping.
