Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Unsalted pistachios
- 2 tablespoons Avocado oil
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Spread the pistachios in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Roast the pistachios in the oven for about 5 minutes, or until they're fragrant and lightly toasted. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
Allow the roasted pistachios to cool slightly after removing them from the oven.
Transfer the pistachios to a food processor fitted with a metal blade.
Begin processing the pistachios on high speed. Initially, they will become a powder, which will then start clumping together.
After about 3-5 minutes, as the nuts start releasing their oils, add the avocado oil and salt.
Continue processing for another 3-5 minutes, stopping occasionally to scrape down the sides of the bowl, until the pistachio butter reaches your desired consistency.
Taste and adjust the salt if necessary.
Transfer the pistachio butter to an airtight container. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
