Macadamia Nut Butter
This easy 1-ingredient macadamia nut butter recipe is creamy, delicious, and made in under 15 minutes with raw macadamia nuts for a healthier, more affordable alternative to store-bought versions.
Ingredients
- 400 g Raw, Unsalted Macadamia Nuts
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350℉ (175℃).
- Place macadamia nuts on a baking tray then roast for 5 minutes, shaking the tray halfway through to avoid burning.
- Allow the nuts to cool for a couple of minutes, then add to a food processor or high-speed blender.
- Blend until smooth. This may take 5-10 minutes depending on the strength of your blender. Stop the blender every couple of minutes to scrape down the sides.
- Once runny, add in some vanilla extract and a pinch of salt (optional), and blend for a couple more minutes.
- Transfer to an airtight container and store in a cool place.
