    i wonder how these would be using coconut flour - 5/20/20

    I recommend the all-purpose flour because you still need to add the sweetness (sugar and coconut chips) in it. Otherwise, the coconut flour requires different ingredients' measurements. You are more than welcome to try and let me know how things work. Hope this would help!
