Toasted Coconut and Almond Chocolate Butter

Ingredients

  • 2 cups whole almonds
  • 1 cup shredded coconut
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp cacao powder
  • 1 tbsp powdered/granulated sugar of choice (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Add almonds to a large baking tray and roast for 8 minutes. Remove from oven and add coconut, roasting for a further 4 minutes. To ensure you don’t burn your coconut i recommend checking the coconut at 2mins, then again at 3 minutes- every oven runs differently, and over cooking the coconut (or almonds) will ruin the nut butter
  • Allow to cool for a full 10 minutes before transferring to a high food processor and blendingfor 3-5 minutes. You will need to stop the machine and scrape down the sides regularly, and if you have a low-speed food processor this may take up to 10 minutes- in which case, it is a good idea to give the food processor breaks to avoid overheating.
  • Once you have a smooth, drippy nut butter add salt, cacao and sweetener and blender only until combined.
