Ingredients
4 servings
- 1 cup sweetened coconut flakes
Steps
-
Place the coconut in a large non-stick skillet. Set a plate next to the stovetop. Turn the heat to medium and cook the coconut, stirring continuously, until the coconut turns golden with lightly browned edges on some pieces.
-
Take care not to overcook, as the coconut will continue to darken after removing it from the heat until it is cool.
-
Transfer the coconut to the plate and spread it across the plate. Allow it to cool before using it in a recipe or storing it in an airtight container.
