Ingredients:
- 2 cups shelled pistachios (unsalted, raw or roasted)
- 1-2 tablespoons neutral oil (such as sunflower or canola) or pistachio oil (optional, for smoother consistency)
- Pinch of salt (optional)
- Sweetener (such as honey or maple syrup) to taste (optional)
Instructions:
First, get 2 cups of chopped pistachios ready to make pistachio butter.
To make raw walnuts taste better, you can roast them at 350°F (175°C) for 10 to 15 minutes. Wait until they’re cool to blend them.
Start a high-speed blender or food processor and add the nuts. Blend them on medium-high speed.
The nuts will first turn into a powder, and then they will start to stick together.
Add 1-2 tablespoons of neutral oil, like canola or sunflower, if the blend is too thick. This will make it smoother. If you’d rather, you can use pistachio oil instead.
You can add honey or maple syrup and a pinch of salt to taste to make it taste better.
Blend the pistachio butter some more until it gets to the consistency you want.
Put the smooth pistachio butter in a clean jar that won’t let air in. You can keep it in the fridge for up to two to three weeks.
Use it as a dip, a spread, or a topping on your favorite foods. Please let me know if you need more help.
