Great Recipe
One needs further guidance information on whether to store in fridge and for how long it will last.

No luck with sunflower butter
I just tried making sunflower butter in my Vitamix; it never came together. I used 1# of raw unsalted sunflower seeds and about 3 to 4 T. of sunflower oil. I followed the directions for peanut butter that are in the book that came with the machine. The blade spun around at first, but then a gap by the blade was created, so I tamped it down. The blade spun a bit then the motor stopped; it overheated. I ended up making it in my food processor. I’d really like to know how I can make it in my Vitamix. Should I have used roasted sunflower seeds? Thank you.

Why Sugar?
Will make this but will not add the sugar do not see why it would be needed. Much healthier without

Looks easy, but I was looking for no added oil.
I've bought raw almonds and want to make almond butter from it. Is there a reason to use separate oil?
