Homemade Coconut Butter

Since I can't eat tree nuts, peanuts or sunflower seeds, I needed to find an alternative "butter". I've given up soy, so that rules out soy nut butter. Then someone on twitter mentioned about how she loved coconut butter. I did some research and realized it was very simple to make.

Step 1: Buy unsweetened coconut flakes


Step 2: Put the flakes into a food processor and turn it on.


I used my timer and took photos each time I stopped the food processor.




 After 10 mins:



After 16 minutes:


 It took a total of 16 mins in the food processor to complete this batch. Unfortunately it doesn't make much.



I store mine in homemade yogurt jars in the cabinet.
