This creamy pecan butter is savory, sweet, nutty, delicious, and nutritious! It's a more affordable alternative to store-bought nut butters and contains no fake ingredients. You'll love how easily it comes together with just a few ingredients.
1: Spread the pecans on a baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 minutes. (You can skip this step if you want to make raw pecan butter.)
2: Let the pecans cool before adding them to your food processor or high-speed blender.
3: Process until the pecans reach a creamy, smooth texture, scraping down the sides every couple of minutes if needed.
4: Add in cinnamon, salt, and maple syrup (optional) and process until combined.
5: Transfer to a mason jar and store in the refrigerator for a firmer consistency, or leave it out for a smoother, creamier texture.
