I love nut butters and go through tubs of them every week! Despite being delicious and nutritious they can be quite expensive, so it does get a little costly when I start adding it up how much I actually eat.
Making your own nut butter not only helps with saving £££ but it's also super quick and easy. I always prefer homemade produce as I know exactly where the ingredients have come from and what goes in it.
This recipe will work with any type of nut, however I'm trying to add more walnuts into my diet as they are rich in antioxidants and carry amazing anti-inflammatory properties. They are also a great source of omega-3 essential fatty acids which nourishes skin, hair and nails and are loaded with copper and magnesium. Despite all that, they're pretty delicious too!
Ingredients:
2 cups of walnuts
1 tbsp gf vanilla essence
1 tbsp honey / pure maple syrup - optional
pinch of salt
Method:
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees.
Line a baking tray and lightly roast the walnuts for approx. 5 minutes, until they turn golden. Keep checking to make sure they don't burn else the butter will turn bitter.
Once cooled, add the walnuts, vanilla, honey and salt into a food processor and whiz until smooth. Keep scrapping down the sides of the food processor until you have butter consistency. The longer you blitz, the smoother and runnier your butter will be. I like mine a little crunchy.
Transfer your nut butter into a little jar or bowl and store in the fridge.
