Nut butters are simple to make and you can be incredibly creative. You can make a nutritionally potent activated walnut butter, and roast 30–50g (1–1¾oz) of these nuts to get a richer flavour; you could make a caramel-like butter from candied pecans, or combine nuts or seeds, such as mixing candied pumpkin seed with raw hemp seed butter. Use your creations on toast, in cakes and cookies, to thicken soups and much more!
