I don't have a ton of experience baking with it, but I know many who use coconut oil instead of butter in their recipes. I made banana bread the other day and subbed coconut oil for butter and the result was a surprisingly dense, very moist bread.

We use palm oil. It's a solid at room temperature.

I second CO, use it in everything.

This site has some sub rcipes, but I have not tried any yet- http://www.godairyfree.org/Table/Dai...r-Subs-Butter/

 

Coconut oil, palm oil, lard.

 

Earth Balance spread. Works pretty well and it's vegan

 

thanks y'all!

 

extra light tasting olive oil can be used in lots of recipes in place of butter.
