Butter producer EU hasn’t replaced (4,3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

shea nut

'butter producer' is the definition.
(shea nuts contain shea butter)

'eu hasn't replaced' is the wordplay.
'replaced' indicates anagramming the letters.
'eu'+'hasnt'='euhasnt'
'euhasnt' anagrammed gives 'SHEA-NUT'.

(Another definition for shea nut that I've seen is " West African source of butter".)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
