Spread Spoon Drizzle
Joel Austin
We hear it over and over again. Customers tell us, "I am so addicted to your coconut butter! I can't stop adding it to everything!" We hear ya. And we have to give the credit back to the coconut butter for its amazing ability to change from creamy spread to liquid love to solid bites of sweetness.
With just a slight change of temperature, coconut butter is ready to do what you need to enhance your meal. We promise just 15 seconds in the microwave or a couple minutes in the fridge or even freezer and its ready for action. It makes us so happy to be able to add the flavor and all the benefits of eating this superfood to so many dishes.
We begin with the art of the drizzle. As a liquid, your coconut butter can join flavor-packed forces with other foods. Stir it right into your oatmeal for added sweetness and fuller flavor. Blend it into brownie batter or other baked goods. Drizzle it over a plate of fruit or nuts then cool for a magic shell effect.
Sometimes, it works to simply spoon some coconut butter right out of the jar and into your dish of choice. Plop a dollop into your coffee, yogurt or our very favorite, the smoothie. From there it may harden, melt or when added as the last smoothie ingredient, just pulse a few times and you will experience the added bliss of chewy bits through the straw. There is something so satisfying about sinking your teeth and chewing into food. Nibbles of coconut butter truly elevate the everyday smoothie.
Finally, grab that knife and when the coconut butter is right at about 75 degrees, it is this creamy goodness that has an amazingly smooth mouth-feel and is a perfect match for toast, pancakes, waffles, you name it. What better option than the usual jelly or peanut butter that have all the sugar and fats that fail to bring the benefits that coconut has to offer.
Basically there are no rules when it comes to coconut butter. Just a little temperature adjustment and maybe a stir and you are ready to give your taste buds an amazing treat!
Be well and enjoy!
