Coconut Oil In Baking

I found spectrum coconut oil in my commissary. :D It was such a surprise. I'm going to request they stock spectrum shortening. I just wanted to know if you can sub the coconut oil for butter/margarine in baking? The health food store is a bit far and there is no safe margarine/shortening in our commissary. The coconut oil is cheaper on base too. TIA!

I've used it in place of butter or shortening. Gives an AMAZING flavor to chocolate chip cookies!

I bought coconut oil at the health food store once. Used it in baking and even to fry eggs. Between olive oil, coconut oil or lard I couldn't decide which one was worse on eggs <_< . I finally got use to the taste of olive oil and don't even notice it anymore.

I'm wandering, so back to the point ....We found that keeping coconut milk in the fridge so it stays solid works pretty well and is less expensive than the oil for baking.

      @placey0918 did you mean Nature’s Bounty? I’m not getting anything from Nature’s Bound.

      Multi vitamin plus iron

      Hi,  There are two brands I've trusted : ez melts and Nature's Bound. I personally don't take a multi vitamin, only get the ones my Dr. tells me I'm low in based on my annual test results, but I'm pretty sure both have one or something close for you. Quality ingredients grown  (mostly) and both have non GMO ingredients, plus are processed here in the US.

      Thought I had a good multi-vitamin (365 for women) but this morning I began to feel a bit queasy at breakfast (all carefully selected gluten-free items), about 15 minute after dropping my vitamin. I’ve taken these for about a month and have overall felt more pep in my step, but never thought to look at the ingredients list until the nausea came on. You probably already guessed: yep. So I was just going to Google best gluten-free multi for women plus iron and go past the sponsored results when it occurred to me, I would be better to trust the forum than Google AI. Anyone have a recommendation that they would share?

      Testing Help

      Thank you both for your insights. I think I’ll have to repeat testing in a few months and have a longer period of gluten consumption.
