How to Use Coconut Oil Instead of Shortening
- 1). Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease the bottom and edges of a bread pan lightly with coconut oil.
- 2). Combine ¾ cup virgin coconut oil with 1 cup granulated sugar, 1 cup brown sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract in a large mixing bowl. Mix with an electric mixer on low speed until smooth. Add two eggs, one egg at a time and mix on low speed until well blended.
- 3). Combine two cups wheat flour, ½ tsp. baking soda, 1 tsp. salt with a spoon. Add this mixture slowly to the wet ingredients and mix on low with the electric mixer until all the dry ingredients are mixed in.
- 4). Place teaspoon size scoops of the cookie mixture onto an ungreased cookie sheet about an inch apart. Bake for eight to 11 minutes, until the edges begin to tan. Place on a rack to cool.
