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