Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups shelled raw pistachios
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon erythritol sweetener (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Spread the shelled raw pistachios evenly on a baking sheet and roast them in the preheated oven for about 8-10 minutes. Stir halfway through to ensure even roasting. This step enhances the flavor and makes the pistachios easier to blend.
Remove the pistachios from the oven and allow them to cool slightly for about 5 minutes.
Transfer the roasted pistachios to a high-speed food processor or blender. Process them for about 3-5 minutes, scraping down the sides as needed, until they start to break down.
Add the coconut oil and salt to the pistachios in the processor. Continue processing for another 3-5 minutes, or until the mixture reaches a smooth, creamy consistency. If you prefer a sweeter pistachio butter, add the erythritol sweetener at this stage and blend until fully incorporated.
Taste the pistachio butter and adjust sweetness or salt if necessary.
Transfer the pistachio butter to a clean, airtight jar or container for storage. It can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Enjoy your pistachio butter as a spread on keto bread, a dip for fruits, or as a delightful addition to smoothies.
