Ingredients

• 2 cups Raw pine nuts (pinon)
• 0.5 teaspoons Sea salt
• 1 teaspoons Neutral oil (optional; e.g., avocado oil)

Directions

Step 1

Place the raw pine nuts in a high-powered blender or a food processor. Ensure the appliance is clean and dry to prevent any moisture from affecting the consistency.

Step 2

Blend or process the pine nuts on medium speed. Initially, the nuts will break down into a coarse meal-like texture.

Step 3

Pause the machine and scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula. Continue blending in intervals to prevent overheating the machine.

Step 4

As the oils in the nuts release, the mixture will transform into a paste and eventually a smooth, creamy butter. This process may take 5–7 minutes, depending on your machine's power.

Step 5

Once the pine nut butter reaches your desired creamy consistency, add the sea salt. Blend again briefly to incorporate.

Step 6

For a silkier texture, add 1 teaspoon of neutral oil (optional) and blend until fully mixed.

Step 7

Carefully transfer the pinon butter into a clean, airtight glass jar or container. Let it cool to room temperature before sealing.

Step 8

Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Stir well before each use, as natural oils may separate over time.
