Coconut Butter

8 oz. organic unsweetened coconut flakes
2 tablespoons organic coconut oil
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 packet Stevia
3-4 dashes of sea salt

Put ingredients in a food processor and allow to process for 5 minutes. Scrape down the sides and allow to process 10 more minutes. Scrape down the sides and allow to process for 10 more minutes. Repeat this process until the coconut looks like moist sugar cookie dough. You may continue the process until the mixture begins to liquify. (If you have a Vitamix, the entire process could take as little as 5 minutes.) Store in an airtight container at room temperature.

~ I started the Paleo diet Sunday and this is one of the first recipes I tried. It is delicious! My child has a bit of an issue with the texture, but it is so nutritious that I was committed to finding a way for her to enjoy it. My solution - mix it in with a baked sweet potato! YUM. ~
