- 2 tablespoons Honey (optional, for sweetness)
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract (optional)

1. Preheat a small non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the shredded coconut and toast for 3–5 minutes, stirring frequently, until it turns golden brown and fragrant. Remove from the heat and let it cool completely.
