Hello – My partner has an allergy to coconut, what could I use instead of coconut oil/ coconut milk in the recipes?

Because coconut products are primarily used as a substitute for cow’s dairy in the recipes, there is not an easy answer to that!

Depending on the detailed food and symptom diary, your confidence in tolerance to milk sugar (lactose) and/ or cow’s milk proteins and/ or soy products, AND after consulting a registered dietician or similar about cross reactivity …

Options include goat’s or ewe’s dairy products, ghee (from pastured/ grass fed cows), soaked cashew nut ‘cream’, silken tofu (but soy), palm kernel oil (NOT palm fruit/ red palm oil, has a very different fatty acid profile).
