Be sure to measure your ingredients accurately. Coconut flour is very absorbent, so it's important to use the correct amount of ingredients to avoid a dry or crumbly cornbread.
Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cornbread tough.
Let the cornbread cool completely before cutting it. This will help to prevent it from crumbling.
Serve the cornbread warm with butter, honey, or your favorite toppings.
