How To Make Cashew Butter

You will find full instructions and measurements in the recipe card at the bottom of the post. This is a summary of the process to go along with the process photos.

• Add roasted, salted cashews to the food processor and process. It will start off crumbly and then will start to clump and stick to the sides.

• Stop the food processor and scrape down the sides and then start it up again.

• While the machine is running, pour in the melted coconut oil.

• Keep processing until it reaches a smooth, creamy cashew butter consistency.

Recipe Tips

Roasted and salted cashew nuts. The easiest and best tasting option is to use roasted and salted cashews. Roasted cashews process into a nut butter much more easily than raw cashews. The flavor is also really good with roasted cashews.

Coconut Oil. We used melted coconut oil but you can actually use any oil. The oil really helps the process along and it goes much faster. If you prefer not to use oil you can omit it, but it will likely take a few minutes longer.

Make it in a food processor. It is possible to make nut butters in a blender but I find it much harder to do. A food processor is the best and easiest way to make nut butters.

Storing And Freezing

Keep your cashew butter stored in a glass jar in the fridge where it will stay good for 2 weeks or longer.

It is also freezer friendly if you’d like to freeze some. Thaw it overnight in the fridge when you’re ready to use it.
