Ingredients

• 2 cups Mixed nuts (e.g., almonds, cashews, walnuts)
• 2 tablespoons Pure maple syrup
• 1 tablespoon Coconut oil (optional, for extra creaminess)
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt (optional, to taste)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

Spread the mixed nuts evenly on a baking sheet and roast them in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until they are lightly golden and fragrant. Stir the nuts halfway through roasting to ensure even toasting. Keep a close eye on them to prevent burning.

Step 3

Let the roasted nuts cool slightly for about 5 minutes.

Step 4

Transfer the cooled nuts to a food processor or high-powered blender. Blend for 2-3 minutes, pausing to scrape down the sides as needed, until the nuts become crumbly and begin releasing their natural oils.

Step 5

Add the pure maple syrup, coconut oil (if using), and salt (if using). Continue processing for an additional 2-4 minutes, or until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy. Adjust the processing time based on your preferred texture.

Step 6

Taste the nut butter and adjust the sweetness or salt level as needed by adding a touch more maple syrup or salt.

Step 7

Transfer the maple nut butter to a clean, airtight jar or container. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Stir if separation occurs.
