Add the cashews to a pot and fill it with enough water to fully submerge them. It is also freezer friendly if you’d like to freeze some. Spread the cashews on a baking pan evenly and toast them at 325✯ for about 15 minutes, or until just lightly golden. It only takes about 15 minutes for them to soften in boiling water. Keep your cashew butter stored in a glass jar in the fridge where it will stay good for 2 weeks or longer. If you prefer not to use oil you can omit it, but it will likely take a few minutes longer. The oil really helps the process along and it goes much faster. We used melted coconut oil but you can actually use any oil. The flavor is also really good with roasted cashews. Roasted cashews process into a nut butter much more easily than raw cashews. The easiest and best tasting option is to use roasted and salted cashews.

A food processor is the best and easiest way to make nut butters. It is possible to make nut butters in a blender but I find it much harder to do. Keep processing until it reaches a smooth, creamy cashew butter consistency.While the machine is running, pour in the melted coconut oil.Stop the food processor and scrape down the sides and then start it up again.It will start off crumbly and then will start to clump and stick to the sides. Add roasted, salted cashews to the food processor and process.This is a summary of the process to go along with the process photos.
