nutbutter - Coconut Butter
By tinathorn
Love. I love this creamy, rich spread. Loaded with MCFAs (medium chain fatty acids), this once shunned superfood has been reborn with new research and understanding of it’s healthy profile. Simply, medium chain fatty acids are easily assimilated into energy within the body, fats your body NEEDS!

Preparation
Step 1
2 bags, or a minimum of 4 cups unsweetened, dried, grated coconut..AND THAT IS IT!
It is important not to use less than 4 cups, you need the volume to get the whole mixture moving.
If you add some coconut oil to the mixture, it will be slightly more spreadable at room temp. But through the winter, the butter is hard! For smoothies, I just chisel some out for use. For other uses, I prefer to just heat the butter slightly for 20 seconds in the microwave, or leave it a warm place on my stove. When it is actually warm outside here in the NW, this takes care of itself. and the butter remains more soft.
