Ingredients

• Sea salt - 1/4 teaspoon

Steps

1. In a medium saucepan, combine the pure maple syrup and sea salt over medium heat.
2. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring frequently, and let it boil for about 5-7 minutes until it reaches the soft ball stage (around 115°C or 240°F).
3. Remove the saucepan from heat and add the coconut oil, stirring until fully incorporated.
4. Let the mixture cool for about 5 minutes until it thickens slightly, then beat it with a wooden spoon until it becomes creamy and lightens in color.
5. Pour the mixture into a greased candy mold or onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spreading it into an even layer.
6. Allow the candy to cool completely at room temperature for at least 1 hour before cutting it into pieces.
