Homemade Pecan Butter



What you'll need:

1 cup pecan halves
1/2 TBSP olive oil
A few pinches of ground cinnamon (or to your desired taste)
1 pinch ground seat salt
Food processor
(I used my Ninja, because it has a small canister that is perfect for something like this)

[You can multiply this recipe if you need more than 1 cup of pecan butter]




Directions:

Place all 4 ingredients in food processor.  Pulse a few times until the pecans are chopped to a very fine powder.  Open the food processor and scrape down whatever is on the walls.  Continue to process the ingredients for 5-10 seconds at a time (scraping what is stuck of the walls of the processor as needed throughout the process, to ensure even blending) until the pecan butter is the desired consistency. 


Storage/Serving:

Keep refrigerated for optimal freshness, and stir before each use.







Enjoy!
