I've been doing more keto and vegan recipes lately, but have realized I just cant get used to coconut oil, milk, creme flour,...anything with a coconut flavor. Any suggestions for healthy substitutions?

    Cashew cream can be used as a substitute for coconut milk in some recipes.

    Refined coconut oil has no coconut flavor and can be used as a sub for unrefined coconut oil.

    I'm not keto, but could you use seed-based replacements, like tahini and seed oils; and high fat fruits like avocado blended into various consistencies? Thinking out loud...
