Once made, pour the coconut butter into a glass container and store in the pantry where it will keep for well up to two years.
Do not store in the fridge as it will become too hard and you will not be able to get the mix out of the container ... believe me I have tried.
Great for use in smoothies, energy balls, raw treats, etc.
Ingredients
400g desiccated or shredded coconut
Instructions
FOR THE TM31:
Add coconut to TM bowl and heat 1 minute / 37 / speed 8
Scrape around sides and lid and repeat 1 minute / 37 / speed 8
Scrape around sides and lid again and repeat 1 minute / 37 / speed 8
You have now been blending for 3 minutes and the coconut will have slowly turned into butter
Scrape around sides and lid again and blend for a final 30 seconds / 37 / speed 9
NB: Increasing the speed in the final step will assist in getting a smooth consistency
Pour into a glass jar, and when cool place lid on top and store in pantry

You have now been blending for 3 minutes and the coconut will have slowly turned into butter
