WHAT YOU NEED TO MAKE PECAN PIE NUT BUTTER
You need the following ingredients to make this nut butter (the exact measurements are in the recipe card below):
- Pecans – Good source of calcium, magnesium, potassium, and omega-3 fatty acids.
- Cashews – Great source of healthy fats, fiber, copper, and magnesium. You can substitute for other nuts, such as almonds, hazelnuts, or peanuts.
- Vanilla – I used vanilla powder, but you can also use vanilla extract or paste.
- Cinnamon – adds warm depth of flavor.
- Sea salt – balances the sweetness.
- Coconut oil – You can substitute it for any oil neutral in taste.
- Maple syrup – sweetens the butter. Also, the more maple syrup you add, the more thick the butter will be.
- Rum – adds more flavor. You can substitute it for bourbon. Optional ingredient.
Equipment you need:
- Baking tray
- High-speed blender or food processor – To make the nut butter smooth and creamy, you will need good quality high-speed blender or food processor. Use a blender tamper accelerator to push down the nuts to make it easier to blend.
- Glass jar with lid – for storage
HOW TO MAKE HOMEMADE PECAN PIE NUT BUTTER
You will find the instructions and ingredients list in the recipe card at the bottom of the post.
1. Step: Roast pecans and cashews
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Add pecans and cashews to a baking tray and bake for 7-9 minutes, or until golden brown. Mix them through a few times. Be careful not to burn them.
After roasting, remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
2. Step: Make pecan pie nut butter
To the high-speed blender (or food processor), add roasted pecans, cashews, vanilla, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt and blend on low speed until the nuts are all evenly mixed. Scrape down the sides as needed. Then blend on high speed until it forms into creamy butter. If you’re using a high-speed blender, use a blender tamper accelerator to push down the nuts while blending. The blending might take from 4-10 minutes, depending on your blender/food processor.
Once the butter is creamy and smooth, gradually add in coconut oil, maple syrup, and rum. Blend until incorporated.
Transfer the butter to a jar and let cool completely without any cover.
