Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups raw cashews
  • 2 tsp honey
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Pour your cashews into a skillet and roast over medium heat for 1 - 2 minutes, stirring continuously until you can just smell them.
  • Once your nuts are toasted, transfer them to a food processor or blender. Pour in your cashews and add in your oil, salt and honey. Pulse your cashews until they are broken up and then set your food processor to blend.
  • Occasionally, scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula and start it up again. It takes approximately 10 -12 minutes or so, depending on your machine and what kind of consistency you are looking for.
  • Once your cashew butter has come together and is at the desired smoothness, check the seasonings and adjust accordingly. When your Roasted Cashew Butter is where you want it, transfer it to an airtight container, let it cool and then store it in the refrigerator for up to three months.

Notes

You can also make this Roasted Cashew Butter using store bought cashews that are already roasted and salted.  If that is what you are using, omit the first part of the instructions explaining how to roast the nuts.  Simply add your cashews to the food processor and follow the remaining instructions.  If your cashews are already salted, taste test them before adding the salt called for in the instructions.
