How To Make This Super Nut Butter

Simply toast all of your nuts on a sheet pan in the oven. Once fragrant and golden brown, combine in a blender or food processor and mix until you get a creamy texture of your liking.

Tips For Making This Super Nut Butter

There are a few tips you should keep in mind that will help you store, add versatility, and enjoy this recipe.

Make it your own

Not a fan of hazelnuts? Or maybe walnuts aren’t your thing? Have a peanut allergy? That’s quite alright! Only add in the nuts that you truly enjoy to make this Super Nut Butter unique and individual to you. 

Store in a glass-tight container 

Homemade nut butter is made to last! As long as you have an air-tight container to store it in, you can store it in the refrigerator for up to 4-6 months.

Don’t be afraid of separation

If you start to see a bit of oil sitting at the top of your nut butter, don’t worry! This is completely normal. All you have to do is give it a good stir, being sure to scrape the bottom of the container, prior to use.

What To Serve With Super Nut Butter To Make It Balanced

This Super Nut Butter is so versatile. You can add it to your or your kid’s favorite pb&j sandwich on some whole wheat, sprouted grain bread, or simply dip some apples in it!

I also love drizzling this nut butter over anything I can – oatmeal and yogurt bowls are some of my favorites.   

FAQ About How To Make Super Nut Butter:

Can I sweeten this up a bit? 

Absolutely. If you like to use your nut butter as a sweet treat, feel free to add a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup when using it. 

What about salt?

You can add a bit of salt too! While we think the toasted nuts give a robust flavor on their own, everyone’s palate is different. Feel free to use a slightly heavier hand with that salt if that’s more up your alley. 

Should I add oil?

If you find that when blending or processing the nuts aren’t creating as creamy of a texture you’d prefer, then you can slowly add 1 teaspoon of neutral oil like avocado oil or coconut oil. Be patient, when blending or processing the oils will come out and create a creamy texture!

A collection of cells working together is called a tissue, while a series of tissues performing organized functions are called organs. The human body contains trillions of cells, all with varying tasks that help support bodily organs; these include skin cells, nerve cells, blood cells, barrier function cells (supporting the lungs, gut) and more. Cells rely on good nutrition for energy production and to prevent oxidative damage. The anatomy of a cell Cells in the human body are so tiny that they are invisible to th...
