Homemade Nut Butter Ingredients

• Unsalted Roasted Almonds: Rich and buttery with a deep, toasty nuttiness.
• Unsalted Roasted Walnuts: Earthy and robust, contributing a hearty nuttiness.
• Roasted Sunflower Seeds: Delicately nutty with a hint of earthiness.
• Pumpkin Seeds (Unsalted): Subtly sweet and nutty, adding complexity to the blend.
• Chia Seeds: Nutty and crunchy, providing a delightful texture.
• Hemp Hearts: Mildly nutty with a hint of sweetness, contributing to a well-rounded taste.
• Salt: Enhances and balances the natural nuttiness, creating depth in the overall flavor.

This combination results in a Nutty Bliss Nut Butter, a harmonious blend of rich, toasty, and earthy notes from various nuts and seeds.

Tips to Make the Best Mixed Nut Butter

• Be patient when you are blending the nuts. The nuts take about 10 to 15 minutes to reach a creamy consistency.
• For the best quality nut butter, choose organic nuts when you can and only buy unsalted nuts and seeds. The nut butter will be too salty if you buy salted nuts and seeds.
• Make sure to roast the nuts and seeds before blending them. This will enhance the flavor of your final nut butter.
• If you use nuts with loose skin, like macadamia nuts, remove the skin before blending the nuts.
• Don’t add water to the blender. Instead, add a spoon of honey or maple to help with the consistency.
• Add a tiny amount of salt. The nut butter will already be flavorful and savory from being roasted.
• Nut butter can be easily stored in a closed glass jar such as a mason jar.
