Cinnamon Maple Pecan Butter

Time: 15 minutes | Serves: 1 (12 oz.) mason jar of pecan butter

Ingredients:

  • 2 1/2 cups raw pecans

  • 2 teaspoons pure maple syrup

  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

  • 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla

  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Directions:

  1. First, preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Evenly spread pecans on a baking sheet. Toast pecans in oven for 7-9 minutes. Be careful not to burn the nuts, usually they are perfectly toasted at 8 minutes. Remove from oven and allow nuts to cool for a few minutes.

  2. Next, add the pecans to a food processor and process on low for about 3 minutes, scrape the sides, and then process again on high for about 2 minutes or until the pecans reach a pretty liquid consistency.

  3. Then, add in the maple syrup, cinnamon, vanilla, and sea salt. Pulse until just combined, about 10 seconds.

  4. Transfer pecan butter to a mason jar and store in the fridge for up to 1 month. EAT and enjoy!
