Cashew Butter

Hey Christina, you can store the cashew butter in a cool, dry, and dark place for up to 1 month, or in the fridge for up to 3 months. In case you haven't seen yet and it helps in the future, the storage instructions on the app are in the directions tab and the last slide of the "Make" step-by-step instructions 🤗

Thanks for sharing this. I don’t have a food processor, and was debating trying it out in my blender. Will now try this today!

Awe how adorable! Lots of love to you and your little one, Laura 🤗

It's one of our favourites too! So glad to hear, Steph ☺️

Hey Dom, yes if using pre-roasted cashews we'd recommend rewarming them in the oven for 5 minutes or so. This will help them blend smoother and refresh the taste. We'd suggest unflavoured nuts and using a lower oven temperature, such as 300°F- 350°F, to avoid over-toasting 🙂

Thank you for taking the time to share, JoAnne 🙂

So glad to hear! The extra few minutes can make all the difference 😃

Awe we're so glad it was enjoyed, Sandrine! We hope the oatmeal was delicious 🤗

Hey there, Wendy, thanks for the question! Our food processors tend to be between 500-1200 watts so we're hesitant to say yes as yours could break. It may be possible with some added liquid (such as water or oil) or smaller portions depending on other factors, such as the shape of the blades. If you hear any unusual noises or smell anything off, that would be a sign it isn't powerful enough. We hope this helps for now and you enjoy the nut butter if you're able to give it a try 😊

Oh, Rashmi, this means so much! We highly appreciate the kind words and support 💚

Aw we're so thrilled to hear this, Cynthia, happy cooking 😃

Thank youuu 😃!

Hey there, Aks, thanks for the questions! We would recommend the oven if possible as the nuts burn fairly quickly on the stovetop without warming up evenly. If you test it out on the stove, using a non-stick pan, lowering the heat, and keeping a close eye on the nuts may help.

We wouldn't advise using a basic blender for this one as there isn't enough liquid and your blender could break. A food processor is better suited for a dryer mixture, such as this. It may be possible to use a high-powered blender with some added oil and create a crunchier nut butter. Although if you hear any unusual noises or smell anything off, that would be a sign your blender isn't powerful enough. We hope this helps for now 🙂

Great, I shall try. Thank you so much for your quick response. Much appreciated. :)

That's a wonderful question, Nasim! We recommend using warm cashews that were recently roasted as they tend to blend better and taste fresher. We hope this helps 🙂

We're so grateful to hear this, Poorvi! Thank you for the kind words and support ✨🙂

You're always welcomed!

Thank you for being part of our PUL family, Rekha 🥰

Hi Anna, thank you for sharing with us. How frustrating! We appreciate your patience as it must have been disappointing to unsuccessfully make the cashew butter. Adding some coconut oil and ensuring the cashews are freshly roasted may help with the blending. Perhaps blending in smaller increments of time may also help if your food processor isn't able to handle longer durations of time!

If you're looking into getting a high-powered food processor, we have some information in our kitchen essentials article that may be helpful if you haven't already seen it. If you're interested, you can search for this recipe on the website 😃

Hi Anna, I’m guessing you used the Vitamix for doing the cashew butter. .? That will not work, a good powerful blender will not do the butters....I tried...I think it is best to invest a good food processor...I was looking in to what Sadia is recommending . Good luck on your next try .

Hi Anna! Thank you for taking the time to leave your kind review. So glad you enjoyed the recipe 🙂

This is so incredible to hear, Claudia! We're so happy you gave the recipe a try and enjoyed it 😀

Just keep processing them .They will turn creamy . I almost lost hope with mine but it did turn out great eventually after 10 minutes. I think if you tried to grind it while slightly warm it will be easier and faster .

Could it perhaps not have roasted enough in the oven? I'm glad the coconut oil worked though! Thanks for that!

Thank you for the honest feedback, Matt! There are a few possible culprits. We'd suggest ensuring the cashews are roasted and letting them mix for longer! An extra 5-10 minutes can make a big difference 😁

It may also be that your food processor isn't powerful enough. Enjoying a chunkier cashew butter, or adding some coconut oil can help make it more creamy in this case. Let us know how it goes if you give the recipe another try!

I tried that too, I guess we need to use a food processor which works without adding liquid. A normal grinder might make this into a ball and not allow it to turn smooth and creamy.

Hi there Mallika and Stephanie! We didn't add liquid to this recipe, but here are a few ideas:

1) Let it run for longer. Sometimes the extra 5 minutes can make all the difference
2) If this doesn't work, it could be that your food processor isn't powerful enough, and that's okay. It'll make for a slightly chunkier cashew butter which is equally as delicious :)
3) Try adding a tbsp or so of coconut oil. This can help to make it a bit more creamy!

Glad you decided to try it, Hana! :D
