coconut oil has a wonderful flavor! i use nature's way pure extra virgin organic. i dont use it on all things, because while its good fat, my understanding is that it is high in fats.
|
I have never used coconut oil for baking.

Any favorite recipes that you use? Ann in TN

I'm allergic to coconut so will not be trying that. It gives me hives.

Thanks for all the suggestions. I will keep a look out for the coconut oil and try it.

I use it to make soap but never tried to eat it! LOL

I always read that coconut oil is the highest in saturated fat of any and is very unhealthy.
