Coconut Milk In Baking

When a recipe for baking calls for coconut milk, does it mean in the can or box?  I'm so confused.

Where is the recipe?  Usually it's canned and it'll ask for full fat or light, sometimes refrigerated if making a whipped topping with the fat off the top of the can.

I've looked at several recipes for cookies, pie, and cake lately, and they say is coconut milk.

It's really going to depend on the recipe. Usually when its the boxed kind (not in a can) I have seen recipes call for "coconut beverage".  Without seeing the recipes though it's tough to call.  We've been dairy free because of life threatening allergies for 8 years here so I've seen both used.

If it is a milk substitute then you know it is the coconut beverage.  Recipes rarely call for coconut milk from a can unless it is the cream they are after.

 

Either one will work.

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      Thanks for this Russ, and good to see that it is fortified. I spend too much time looking for M&S gluten-free Iced Spiced Buns to have ever noticed this! That's interesting, Scott. Have manufacturers ever said why that should be the case?

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      In the USA only wheat-based breads are fortified with certain vitamins, but not gluten-free breads, thus we typically encourage celiacs to take multivitamin supplements.

      Are Lindt chocolate balls gluten free?

      Not much use to Canadians but if any British Lindt lovers are looking at this, give Marks & Spencer's Swiss Truffles a try - no barley but same taste. I'm pretty sure that in a blind tasting a coeliac would not know the difference - but then again, if you want to put this to the test, get a non-Coeliac to try this! I don't want anyone here to get glutened...

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      I'm based in the UK and haven't tried that bread but in the past have got on quite well with Genius. Mostly I tend to eat bread with added seeds just because I find it more interesting. It is good to speak to another UK coeliac though as I am absolutely sure that up until recently a lot of the bread I was eating had added vitamins - but when I...
