Sesame Free Honey Cinnamon Coconut Butter

Warm, fragrant, and naturally sweet, this coconut butter is the kind of spread that makes you want to slather it on everything in sight. Raw honey and ground Ceylon cinnamon get gently warmed together before being folded into freshly processed coconut, creating layers of flavor that taste far more indulgent than the short ingredient list suggests. Ceylon cinnamon is worth seeking out here — it's softer and more floral than the common cassia variety, and it really shines against the rich, creamy coconut base. Store-bought nut and seed butters can be a minefield when you're avoiding sesame, since shared processing lines are everywhere, but making this at home puts you fully in control of every ingredient that goes into the jar. The technique is satisfying to watch, too — the shredded coconut slowly transforms from dry crumbles into a silky, pourable butter entirely through the power of its own natural oils. Once it cools and firms to a spreadable consistency, it's incredible on toast, stirred into oatmeal, or eaten straight off the spoon. Keep a jar on the counter and it won't last long.
