  • 1/4 cup coconut oil

Preparation
  1. Combine the coconut oil and maple syrup in a glass container and warm them together for 1 minute.

Using cookie butter instead of almond butter is an optional variation that creates a delicious flavor twist. Cookie butter is vegan, at least the one mentioned in the original note.
