Name: Cashew Butter
Prep time: 15 min
Yield: 1 servings
Ingredients: 2 cups raw cashews; 1/2 teaspoon salt; 3 teaspoons coconut oil

It's easy to make raw, vegan cashew butter from scratch. Plus, you can customize the flavor of homemade nut butter. Here's a step-by-step guide.

Instructions

1 Blitz the cashews

2 In a food processor, blitz the cashews along with the salt until they're smooth and spreadable. It'll take five to seven minutes. At first, the nuts will appear crumb-like and dry, but the oil from the cashews will release and the texture will appear almost creamy. Scrape down the bowl once in a while to ensure an even blend.

3 Add coconut oil

4 Add the coconut oil to the processor bowl and continue to blitz for about 30 seconds more. It's done when the mixture looks uniformly creamy. That's all there is to it!
