Pulse the shredded coconut or coconut flakes in the blender or food processor. At first, it will be powdered, then it will start to stick to itself and become smooth like almond butter.
When it starts to get thick, add 2 TBSP of melted coconut oil and keep blending until smooth.
Add sweetener and mix until smooth.
Add any flavorings and mix by hand.
Enjoy!
Notes
Once you make this coconut butter, it will stay good for a very long time. Just store in a tightly sealed container at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
