Butter Recipes
This is one of my favorite things to eat. When I started going raw, I was so glad that I could still have this. I don’t know what is so great about it, the taste(although not the ideal food combining :) combinations are just so good to me.
Perfect as a dip for fruit or crackers, or on top of raw breakfast cereal!
I cant remember where I found this recipe but it’s really a great snack to serve up super quick on anything crisp,I am very fond of it on celery
I finally figured out the secret to making nut butters. You have to add a nut oil, which will make it like real nut butter. The problem with coconut oil is that it hardens too eaily, so if you blend coconut oil with it the coconut oil will harden, creating a crumbly nut “dough”. Not what you want.
Use the same nut oil as nuts you are using. For example, if you are making almond butter, you would use almond oil, and if you’re making Brazil nut butter, you would use Brazil nut oil, macadamia oil for mac butter, etc. Just be sure to use raw nut oil. If your grocery store doesn’t have the raw kind, you’ll probably have to order it.
I am so excited to have figured out how to make coconut butter at home! And for practically nothing! No more 8 dollar jars of Artisana for me!
This is a very rich, almost cream cheese style icing or spread for fruit. These measurements are rough, I just added everything to taste. I was very surprised at how much like real icing this tastes! Would be awesome on raw carrot cupcakes!
