Walnut Butter:
- 2 cups walnuts, (whole, raw, unsalted)
- 1/2 cup dried apples, packed, no sugar added
- Up to 1/2 – 3/4 cup unflavored oil, preferably liquid at room temperature; i.e. not coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Chop Walnuts and Apples: In the bowl of a food processor fitted with the ‘s’ blade, pulse the walnuts and apples 5-6 times to chop, then process for a few minutes until a sort of flour forms, then a lump of what looks like dough.
- Add Oil: With the machine running, slowly drizzle 1/2 cup of oil into the machine, which will loosen up the butter and allow it to continue to puree until almost smooth. Adjust oil amount as needed. Scrape down the sides a few times to ensure thorough mixing.
- Season and Blend: Add the cinnamon and salt, and process for another 30 seconds or so to combine. Taste, and adjust salt and cinnamon to your preference.
- Store: Use immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
Notes
- You can customize the sweetness and spiciness of this butter to suit your taste preferences.
- Experiment with different types of apples for varied flavors.
