  • 1-2 tablespoons maple syrup to taste
  • pinch of sea salt
  • 1-3 tablespoons coconut oil if needed

Instructions

  • Place 2 cups of pistachios nuts and a pinch of sea salt in a food processor.
    Roasted pistachios on the counter.
  • Process on high, frequently stopping to scrape if needed.
  • Process nuts anywhere from 4-10 minutes or until smooth and drippy. If you nuts have a hard time releasing their natural oil (getting the mixture to be drippy), add 1 to 3 tablespoons of coconut oil.

Tips & Notes

  • We do not recommend using a high-speed blender, they don’t get the job done. 
  • Don’t quit on the pistachio butter if it takes some time to process into butter, it takes a while.
