If you know me, which i am sure you all do by now, you know just how much  i love peanut butter… And well my obsession has gone one step further…. Not just peanut butter, but nut butter.

The other week i had an inkling to buy a heavy duty food processor… I was just about to write dont ask me why, but truth be told i have been dying to buy myself one for ages i just havent had the balls to spend the money on such a ‘luxury’ item. Anywho to cut a long story short i found one on special and just couldnt help myself…

And so began the nut butter EXTREME obsession.

Last week attempt number one left me in awe of my fancy new machine… You see i bought some raw almonds roasted them, chucked them in the food processor and 15 minutes later – ALMOND BUTTER! No added oil, no added sugar, no added preservatives, no added crap at all! And boy oh boy was it yummy!

I told a friend about it and when she asked what i spread it on she just looked at me crazy cause i said i ate it straight from the jar!

Anywho today i bought some raw organic mixed nuts – they were on special i think it was a combination of pecans, almonds, brazil nuts, cashews and some hazlenuts and thought i would attempt nut butter again… Yes i know that i will eat it all from the jar but you know what? ITS YUMMY!

Stuff You’ll need

• 500grams raw nuts of your choice
• an awesome food processor

How i did it

Roasted the nuts for about 10 minutes tossing so they dont burn.  Then place them in the processor and just keep processing until it becomes butter

Doesnt it just make you want to stick your spoon in it and eat it like icecream?!
