I started making this because I am obsessed with pecans and I wanted to try pecan butter. I decided to make my own and haven’t stopped. It goes great on everything!

Pecan Butter

By: Kyle Minnich

Alterations: play around with the salt and spices. I’ve added maple syrup, honey, vanilla, and more in different quantities to experiment.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb raw pecans
  • 1 Tbsp.  sea salt
  • 1 Tbsp. cinnamon
  • 1 empty mason jar

Step by Step Instructions

Step 1

Preheat to 250 degrees. 

Lightly toast pecans on nonstick pan.  Toast both sides (about 10 min. per side).  Stir occasionally.

Step 2

Put toasted pecans in blender then repeat Step 1 until all pecans are toasted and blended. 

Step 3

Add seasoning to taste.  I prefer 1 tablespoon of sea salt and 1 tablespoon of cinnamon.

Step 4

Blend until creamy.  You will need to pause occasionally to mix and stir the pecans into the bottom as they typically stick to the sides.  It should take 5-8 minutes of blending. You will know when it gets creamy.

Step 5

Empty contents into mason jar and refrigerate.  Enjoy!
