Servings 3 cups
Ingredients
- 2 cups raw almonds
- 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup use maple to keep vegan
- 1 teaspoon sea salt or to taste
Instructions
- Combine the almonds and coconut in your food processor or high-powered blender (I used my Vitamix). Process for about 3-8 minutes, scraping down as necessary. Your time might be shorter if you’re using a high-powered blender - it will take a little bit longer in the food processor and require more scraping down.
- When the nuts have broken down into a smooth, creamy butter, add the cocoa powder, sweetener of choice, and sea salt. Process to incorporate, and taste. Adjust add-ins as desired.
- Transfer to a glass jar or two (like a mason or Weck jar) and store for 2-3 months.
