INSTRUCTIONS:

2: Spread the coconut in a thin layer on a baking sheet.

Broiler Method:

2: Spread the coconut in thin layer on a baking sheet.
3: Broil 4 - 5 inches from the heat until golden brown (about 1 - 4 minutes). Watch the coconut carefully as it can burn very quickly.

3: Continue cooking until the coconut is to your desired level of browning.

Sweetened coconut takes less time to toast because sugar speeds up the toasting process.
Cool coconut slightly before using.
