Description
You can make your own coconut butter. You really can!
Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 4 cups full-fat unsweetened shredded coconut or coconut flakes
- Optional: 1 tablespoon coconut oil. Makes it smoother but if you don’t have any coconut oil on hand, it’s not a problem.
Instructions
- Dump the shredded coconut into the blender and BLEND. Start slowly and work your way up to high. Use the tamper if you have one.
- Using a high-speed blender, you’ll need to blend for at least a minute, more for other blenders. I think that should do it.
- Pour into a container for keeping. Can be stored in pantry or cabinet. I don’t recommend refrigerating it. Stir well before use. Makes about 1 1/2 cups.
Notes
Coconut butter will solidify in colder months or colder areas. To melt, set in a bowl of hot water until more liquefied.
