Homemade Mixed Nut Butter image

This is a healthier, creamy alternative to store-bought peanut butter. It is a combination of many different types of nuts so you can mix and match according to your tastes and preferences. I personally like to make it with walnuts, almonds, and pistachios. It is also low in sugar. Great for a healthy snack option pre or post workout.

Time 25m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 ⅓ cups raw walnuts
1 ⅓ cups raw almonds
1 ⅓ cups unsalted raw shelled pistachios
2 tablespoons granular sucralose sweetener (such as Splenda®)
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon salt
⅓ cup dark cocoa powder
3 tablespoons nonfat dry milk powder

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spread walnuts, almonds, and pistachios on a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Bake nuts in the preheated oven until toasted and fragrant, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Transfer to a food processor while still hot; process at high speed until broken down and starting to clump together. Turn off processor and scrape down sides with a spatula. Begin processing again until a cream starts to form. Add sucralose, honey, vanilla extract, and salt; blend for 1 minute more.
  • Add cocoa powder gradually, alternating with milk powder, and process for 1 minute more. Let cool completely. Scoop into a jar and refrigerate.
