  • Why not just avoid recipes that have coconut or coconut milk in? If you’re allergic or just don’t like it, this option makes the most sense to me. Leaving coconut out just destroys a recipe. It’s not hard to find recipes without coconut


  • Great! Really interesting reading the comments on this!


  • there are some good comments here


  • try the new recipes from mouth of mums there are some great ideas.


  • Can use dairy milk or cream to substitute. If vegan then nut butter & nut milks are good.


  • It really depends on the recipe you are following – some you can just leave it out. Things like rum balls you can use biscuit crumbs and the same for other sweet recipes.


  • how did you go? :)
