Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 12 oz Unsweetened Shredded Coconut Always opt for high-quality coconut without any added sugars.
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract (Optional) A splash of pure vanilla extract adds comfort.
  • 1 pinch Sea Salt (Optional) Balances the sweetness of the coconut.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Place the shredded coconut in a food processor.
  2. Blend for about 3-5 minutes until it begins to clump together.
  3. Continue blending, stopping to scrape down the sides, until it transforms into a smooth, liquid texture (10-15 minutes).
  4. Pour into a clean glass jar and seal.
  5. Store in the pantry for up to 2 weeks or in the fridge for up to a month.
  6. Enjoy on toast, in smoothies, or as a dip.

Notes

Make sure your coconut is at room temperature for best results. If clumpy, briefly heat in the microwave to soften before blending. Storage: Always use a clean spoon to prevent contamination.
