Equipment
Method
- Preheat oven to 350°F and add raw nuts to the baking sheet. Roast nuts for 8-12 minutes, or until fragrant and slightly golden brown.
- Add roasted nuts to a food processor or blender and blend until a creamy butter forms. The nuts should go from whole, to meal, to clumps, to creamy nut butter. Scrape down sides as needed.
- Add additional add-ins to taste, once creamy. Transfer to a clean jar or airtight container and store in the refrigerator up to 3 weeks.
