How to toast coconut



Preheat oven to 350ºF. Spread unsweetened coconut shavings, or sweetened shredded or flaked coconut on a rimmed baking sheet and bake, stirring every 30 seconds. Continue until edges are golden, about 5 to 10 minutes. If toasting sweetened coconut, check and stir more frequently because the added sugar causes irregular browning, or in my case, burning! (I may have burned the first batch while typing this, it doesn't smell pretty.)
