Coconut Oil has a density of 0.924 g/ml when measured using the Spoon & Level method. Its volume changes depending on state: solid, softened, or melted.

This ingredient belongs to the fat category and is classified as a fat ingredient. Per 100g, it provides 892 calories,0g protein, 0g carbohydrates, and 100g fat.

Expert Tips

💡

Coconut oil is solid below 76°F and liquid above. The state dramatically changes volume measurements.

💡

When a recipe calls for melted coconut oil, measure it after melting, not before.

💡

Coconut oil can substitute for butter in most recipes at a 1:1 ratio by weight, but the flavor will be different.
