Which type of coconut oil should you use for this recipe?

To make plant-based butter that doesn’t taste like coconut, you should use refined coconut oil, not virgin coconut oil. Refined has a neutral scent and flavor, perfect for this recipe.

Is lecithin an essential ingredient in this Keto butter recipe?

Lecithin is an emulsifier added to plant-based butter to help bind the ingredients together and prevent them from separating. We are using sunflower lecithin instead of soy lecithin to make it accessible for people with soy allergies. This emulsifier can be omitted if you aren’t planning on using this butter in baking or recipes requiring melting and setting.
