8 Clever Ways to Use Coconut Oil

The benefits and uses go far beyond what most people realize, and today we're going to show you eight great ways to use coconut oil in your kitchen.

Adding a spoonful of coconut oil to your coffee can get rid of that dairy creamer, as well as give you an extra boost of energy. It's pretty fantastic if you're lactose intolerant. Just add your favorite natural sweetener to your fresh-brewed coffee, and mix it with a blender for a rich, creamy flavor.

Surprisingly, coconut oil goes well with hot chocolate and cold drinks as well.

Now, if you like bagels or toast with your breakfast in the morning and wanna try avoiding artery-clogging butter, try spreading coconut oil on your bread. The slight coconut flavor, which is more prominently unrefined coconut oil, gives a nice aroma and a taste to your toast. It's also way more nutritious.

If you've done any amount of cooking in your time, then you know that sometimes non-stick skillets aren't so non-stick. But with just a little coconut oil, that's no longer even an issue. Instead of using cooking spray, just add a teaspoon or two of coconut oil. Now just go ahead and cook up your eggs like you normally would, and have very little clean-up to deal with.

Speaking of eggs, did you know that you can prolong the life of your eggs in the refrigerator by using coconut oil to seal the pores? Now, this'll probably apply more to those of us in North America, but lightly cover the eggshells in oil, and leave it to seal the pores. This is gonna help prevent exposure to oxygen. This should actually help keep your eggs fresh for at least a week or two longer.

Coconut oil is perfect for sauteing and frying because of it's high smoke point. Many other oils like olive oil can oxidize when heated, but because coconut oil is made up of healthy saturated fats, it remains stable under high temperatures. For all you super smooth smoothie drinkers out there, try slowly adding a tablespoon or two of lightly melted coconut oil to any fruit smoothie. This'll give you a boost of cholesterol fighting compounds that'll improve your metabolism, as well as the consistency of your drink. Another side benefit is that you'll also get healthy fats added to your diet.

Unrefined coconut oil is amazing because you can actually use it for all your baking needs. Just substitute coconut oil one-to-one for butter or other dairy products. It has a lower melting point, so some baked goods might not turn out as fluffy, but we assure you, it'll be much healthier.

Just like their furless, upright, human caretakers, dogs and cats can also benefit from coconut oil. For example, if your pet has an upset stomach, you can mix a teaspoon or two of coconut oil into their food as a natural remedy. And unlike most salves or ointments, it can also be applied topically to help with skin allergies, irritations, wounds, all kinds of things, with no added health risks. So, before moving to harsh chemicals, give coconut oil a try.
