Thermomix body scrub

This is just amazing.  Not only is it a great hand and body scrub but it smells fantastic (and, shhhhh, tastes pretty good, too).  The almond and sugar scrub off dead skin, the oats are soothing and the coconut oil moisturises, all in one step.  The best part is knowing exactly what's in it.

Ingredients

  • 70g almonds whole
  • 20g raw oats
  • 300g raw sugar
  • 100g coconut oil
Pulse the almonds using the turbo button until they're nicely ground up.  That's entirely a matter of personal preference; you don't want it so finely ground that it turns into almond butter, but you do want it fairly well chopped up.  Add the oats and pulse a few more times, then add the other ingredients and pulse again to mix.

To use, scoop some out then add a few drops of water to loosen the mix.  Scrub, rinse and marvel.
