Ingredients

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Dump all of the coconut chips or coconut flakes into a food processor. Blend on high for about 10 minutes.
  2. Pause in between to scrape down the sides.
  3. When ready, transfer the fresh coconut butter into a jar with a lid and store it into your cabinet space for up to 6 months.

Notes

  • When you first start to prosses the coconut, it will turn into grains, then after about 5-minutes, it will turn into wet grains. At first, you may think it's not going to happen, but don't give up!
  • As the food processor continues to process, the processor will start to become warm. Make sure it doesnt get too hot. If it does, give your processor a break.
  • However, its the warm heat from the processor that helps the oils to remove from the flesh of the coconut making it easier to blend and helps to get to the butter consistency.
