It is Honey Butter with out the butter...

Butterless Honey Butter

 This is a simple mind blowing dish. It has similar texture and taste of regular Honey Butter made from margarine. 

Materials
1 part Coconut Oil firm and cool
1 part Raw Local Honey
Sea or Himalayan Salt

Tools
Mixing spoon
Mixing bowl (glass preferably)
Measuring cups & spoons

Instructions
  1. Mix the salt and coconut oil until it has a warm 'buttery' taste
  2. Add the honey and mix until well blended. 
  3. Place in refrigerator to cool and harden. Also can be served immediately according to preference. 
Enjoy on top of warm dairy free corn bread and goodies. I had to create something on the spot to give it a try and boy it was delectable. 

Please try it and let me know if you had similar successes
