Preparation

Step 1

1. In a large skillet – add coconut. You don’t have to use the coconut oil- it just adds a little more crisp. However the coconut will release some oils when it heats so it’s your choice.
2. Spread coconut across the bottom of the pan & heat over medium – stirring every 30 seconds or so to maintain even browning. Be careful & don’t get distracted – it will burn quickly if you forget to stir
3. Keep stirring & browning until it reaches the desired caramel color that you desire. Most pieces should be light brown in color.
4. Remove from heat & allow to cool completely.
5. Can store up to several months in airtight container at room temperature.
