Peanut Cashew Butter
A mixed nut butter of peanuts and cashews that adds a unique flavor to sandwiches, sauces, and fondues.
Ingredients
- 215 g (1½ cup) roasted peanuts
- 185 g (1½ cup) roasted cashews
Directions
- Pour nuts into the Vitamix container and secure lid.
- Select Variable 1.
- Turn machine on and slowly increase speed to Variable 10, then to High, using the tamper to press the ingredients into the blades.
- In 1 minute, you will hear a high pitched chugging sound. Once the butter begins to flow freely through the blades, the motor sound will change from a high pitch to a low laboring sound. Stop machine.
