Toasted Coconut Butter
Coconut butter is super simple to make in a food processor. You can make it with just unsweetened, raw coconut flakes and a pinch of sea salt, or toast some of the coconut and add nuts like I did for more toasty, nutty flavor. The addition of macadamia nuts also seems to help the mixture come together more quickly.
