Homemade Pistachio Butter Delight (Print-Friendly Format)

Velvety pistachio butter with sweet hints and a nutty finish. Enjoy on toast, yogurt, or in baked treats.

# Ingredients You’ll Need:

→ Main

01 - 300 g shelled, unsalted roasted pistachios

→ Optional Add-ins

02 - 5–10 ml honey or maple syrup
03 - 2.5 ml vanilla extract
04 - Pinch of sea salt
05 - 5 ml coconut oil
06 - Raw pistachios, toasted lightly
07 - Almonds or cashews, for nut blend

# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat oven to 175°C. Spread raw pistachios on a baking sheet and toast for 8–10 minutes until aromatic. Allow to cool completely.
02 - Place roasted pistachios in a food processor or high-powered blender. Process on high for 1–2 minutes until mixture is crumbly.
03 - Scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula. Continue processing for 5–7 minutes; the pistachios will release their oils and transform into a creamy butter.
04 - Add honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, coconut oil, or sea salt to taste. Blend until the texture is ultra-smooth and homogenous.
05 - Transfer pistachio butter to a clean, airtight jar. Refrigerate for up to 3 weeks, stirring before each use, as natural separation may occur.

# Extra Tips:

01 - For an extra smooth finish, blend the nuts slightly longer and consider adding a touch of coconut oil.
02 - Do not add liquids like milk or water, as this can cause the butter to seize.
03 - Use roasted pistachios for optimal flavor and creaminess.
04 - Store in the refrigerator and stir before each use to re-incorporate separated oils.
