Walnut Butter

Walnut Butter

A delightfully savory nut butter that I use as a fat/oil source in many recipes. This is one of my favorite recipes of all time since it's easy to make, nutritious, and tastes divine!

Equipment

  • Food processor

Ingredients
  

  • 1 bag walnuts (frozen or at room temp)
  • salt (optional, just a pinch or two to taste)

Instructions
 

  • Fill the food processor about 70-90% full with walnuts.
  • Turn on the processor, and stop every 1-2 minutes to scrape down the sides as needed. Room temperature walnuts may not require scraping.
  • Process until desired consistency, about 5-10 minutes total, including stirring time.

Notes

Walnut halves or walnut pieces are both fine for this recipe. I prefer to make this with frozen walnuts so it gets thick but not TOO creamy. I've been making this recipe for many years, and it's always a delight. It's great for recipes as well as plain on a slice of bread (or as a sandwich) with a sprinkle of salt.
