Coconut Oil

[danner]

Can I use coconut oil as a butter substitute in baking? Or maybe half and half? Any info would be appreciated, thanks.

Totally!

I use it all the time in baking and have great results. I normally cut the amount by half and have great results. Just add a little more liquid ingredient to make up for less oil. A good recipe to experiment on is pancakes and waffles.

My recipes say to use it interchangably. I don't cut it in half though.

Good luck!

I use it interchangeably too. However, I always cream it with sugar before adding cold eggs...otherwise it gets hard and grainy. With pancakes I mix liquor ngredients in my blender first.

I love to use coconut oil in a basic cake mix, turns out moist and just better!

I love using coconut oil! It gives it a coconutty flavor, of course, but it's so sweet .

I love using it too! I use the same amount and don't cut it in half.
