How to make Raw Cashew Butter

Toast

Spread your cashews out evenly on a baking sheet and preheat the oven. Once preheated, place the baking sheet in the oven and bake until the nuts begin to smell toasted and are lightly golden brown. 

Process

Place both the toasted nuts and the salt in a large food process and blend until the nuts begin to break down and release their oils. 

Stream

Once the nuts and salt are smooth, slowly stream in the oil and honey until the butter is thick and smooth. 

Enjoy

Spread and drizzle on everything and DEVOUR!

How to store Cashew Butter

I recommend storing this nut butter in an airtight container in the fridge. It should last about a  month this way, and will be ready to enjoy whenever you desire!

Instructions

  • Heat your oven to 350 degrees and spread the cashews on a baking sheet.

  • Place into a large food processor along with the salt and process until the cashews release their oils and become smooth and creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides often. This will take about 5-10 minutes!
  • Once smooth, stream in the oil and honey and continue processing until the butter is as smooth as you want it *
  • DEVOUR!

Notes

*if the butter thickens after you add the oil and honey and doesn’t thin out then your food processor is at a speed that is too high. Try lowering it! It WILL seize up when you add the oil and it might take awhile to thin out again but it WILL if you’re patient
