Almond, Pecan and Pumpkin Seed Butter
Ingredients:
- 100 g almonds
- 50 g pecan nuts
- 150 g pumpkin seeds
- a pinch of vanilla powder
Place your nuts and seed on a baking tray and roast for approx. 10-15 minutes in a pre-heated oven at 150°C (I prefer to start with nuts only, then add the pumpkin seeds a little bit later since they tend to burn quite easily). Leave them to cool down almost completely and then use your mixture to prepare the butter in a food processor or blender: this part will take some time, especially depending on the kitchen appliance that you have – if your blender or food processor starts to warm up too much or smell a little, simply stop for a while and start again later. It takes a while for both nuts and seeds to release their oil and get into a smooth paste – below you’ll find the step by step photos, to understand better how this process works. Store your butter in a closed jar in the fridge.
