Pure nut butter is so easy and quick to make at home so I don’t see any reason why to buy it at the store. Moreover, generic kinds of nut butter contain added sugar and other unwanted ingredients.

Besides these obvious reasons, there is another one why I prefer to make nut butter myself – I can control its flavor. In general, the more roasted the nuts are, the more distinct the flavor is that they give out. So, If I want my nut butter to be mild in flavor I use raw or slightly roasted nuts to make it. If I’m going for distinct peanut, hazelnut (or any other nut) flavor, I would go for a deeper roast.

I prefer to use raw nut butter as one of the base ingredients for my home-made granola. Otherwise, you can roast nuts of your choice in the oven at 360F (180C) from 7 to 15 mins. Roasting time depends on the type of oven and kind of roast desired. Or to speed things up you can skip roasting all together by buying organic unsalted roasted nuts.

To make the nut butter you will need a food processor or blender. The recipe below describes how to make peanut butter, but you can try making it with cashews, hazelnuts, pistachios, or create your personal blend by mixing a variety of nuts at once.

Do not add any water during the blending process. As all nuts are mostly oil, and oil and water do not mix, it will make your butter less smooth. The heat from the blender (or food processor) will soften nuts, helping them melt.

Ingredients
Instructions
  • Transfer roasted peanuts into a food processor. Add salt (optional). Blend. Depending on the food processor it can take from 5 to 20 minutes. If you have a high-power food processor like I do, no stopping or scraping sides will be needed. But if you have a regular food processor, you might need to stop and scrape the sides as needed. Be patient and continue until your butter has a silky smooth, creamy consistency,
  • Transfer your butter to an airtight jar.
  • Chop a handful of peanuts and place on top of the butter. Enjoy!
Notes
  • Do not add any water during the blending process. As all nuts are mostly oil, and oil and water do not mix, it will make your butter less smooth. The heat from the blender (or food processor) will soften nuts, helping them melt.
  • If you are using a regular blender or food processor, I would recommend warming up your peanuts slightly right before blending.  It will speed up the process.
