Best Easy Walnut Creams Recipes

WALNUT CREAM

Steps:

• Place the walnuts in a bowl with enough water to cover them and allow them to soak for at least 8 hours or overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 325 F.
• Drain the walnuts well and blot them dry with a paper towel. Place them in a single layer on a baking sheet or cookie tray and bake for 10 minutes. Let the walnuts cool completely.
• Place the almond milk, nectar or syrup, vanilla and sea salt in a blender. Blend for 10 seconds.
• Add the nuts to the mix and blend again until smooth. This could take as long as a minute. You may have to stop periodically to scrape down the sides.
• Chill for 30 to 45 minutes in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• Add the walnuts and maple syrup to a small non-stick skillet over medium heat. When the maple just starts to bubble, reduce the heat to low but still slowly bubbling. Simmer for about 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• In the last minute when the maple syrup is mostly evaporated, stir continuously until the liquid is totally cooked out and the nuts start clumping together (but watch so that it doesn't burn or go too far and become powdery, not glossy!). Immediately remove from the heat.
• Transfer the walnuts to a sheet of parchment paper in a single layer. Sprinkle with the salt and allow to cool to room temperature, about 5 minutes if eating right away and about 15 minutes if you want to store them for later use. Store in a covered container at room temperature.
