I have used almond flour for lemon bars and they were actually better I thought that some others I have made. I used the King Arthur Flour (KAF) recipe. My daughter is Gluten Free so I experiment with a lot from KAF. KAF also has a blog post on using it in regular recipes by replacing a certain % of the regular flour. In the recipe section they also have many recipes that use it in conjunction with other flours as well as several crackers and cookies with only the almond flours.
So tropit - how were they?

BTW...just for the record...there is nothing "fake" about almond flour.

Today, I made some lemon bars using almond flour instead of wheat flour. I've got a recipe that I found online. (I'm letting them cool now. I'll let you know how they taste.) I've only played around with almond flour a bit, while making special cookies during the holidays. Does anyone else have much experience using almond flour as a replacement for wheat flour?

Yum! I made the orange cake, and it was delicious. I made a 1/2 recipe and used Splenda instead of sugar. All I had were Halo tangerines, so I boiled 3 of these for almost 90 minutes. I was very skeptical of puree ing them, rind and all, but cake was delicious. I will make this again! Thank you for sharing.
