Ingredients

Scale

2 cups nuts
1 Tbsp coconut oil, melted
salt (optional, to taste)

Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

Using a large food processor or a blender*, grind nuts into a fine powder, for approximately 2-10 minutes.
Add the melted coconut oil and continue processing, scraping down the sides as needed, until the nuts have released their natural oils and the butter is smooth and creamy approximately 5-10 minutes.
Add optional salt and any other additional flavors once the nut butter is finished, and process for 1 minute to incorporate well.

Notes

I use a Blendtec with the twister jar for homemade nut butter, but most blenders and food processors will also work. Depending on your equipment, it might take less time, or more time, to get creamy nut butter.
2 cups of nuts make approximately 1 ½ cups of nut butter. Store in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
