Servings: 1.5 cups
Preparation Time: 60-70 minutes

Simmer the lilikoi in a small saucepan at the lowest heat setting until it is reduced by one-third to one-half (about 45-60 minutes). Turn off the burner.

Stir in the coconut cream concentrate until dissolved. If the CCC is solidified, dip a metal 1/4 cup measure into hot water and then scoop. Add raw honey and mix.

Pour into sterilized half-pint jars. Refrigerate one jar to eat right away. Can the rest for later using the water bath method or freeze it.

Best served at room temperature as the coconut cream will solidify in the fridge.

Flourless Coconut Lemon Cookies

Servings: 12-15
Preparation Time: 10 minutes

  • 3/4 cup
    coconut cream concentrate, softened*
  • 1/4 cup cashew butter (I prefer fresh grind, jarred has added oils)
  • 2/3 – 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup FRESH lemon juice, strained (about 1 lemon)
  • 1 tablespoon grated lemon peel
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder (gluten and corn free)
  • dash of sea
    salt

Preheat oven to 350 degrees ºF.

Place the softened coconut cream in a food processor and pulse until smooth.

Add in the remaining ingredients and process until combined and lemon peel has disappeared.

Depending on how soft your coconut cream was, you may need to place the dough in the refrigerator for a few minutes to harden.

Once dough is hard enough, roll it into about one inch balls. Place the balls on a parchment lined cookie sheet and slightly press down. The cookies will spread slightly.

Bake in preheated oven about 10-12 minutes or until slightly brown around edges.

Let the cookies cool for a few minutes to help them set up then transfer to a cooling rack.

Store in an airtight container and refrigerate if you prefer a harder cookie.

Notes:

*To soften the coconut butter, place the open jar in a saucepan of simmering water. Most have a thick layer of coconut oil on the top, remove that to use for something else. You want to use all butter in this recipe or the oil will cause these to spread too much!!

Rinse the berries and let them dry completely on paper towels.

Warm the coconut cream concentrate, coconut oil, honey, and cardamom just enough to stir it all together. Chill the mixture until it is the texture of frosting (5-15 minutes). Dredge the strawberries in the mixture and either eat them right away or let them chill to set up the coating.
