#### **Instructions**:
1. Place the roasted macadamia nuts in a food processor and blend. They will break down into a paste after a few minutes.
2. Add a pinch of salt and macadamia nut oil if you prefer an extra smooth texture. Blend until you achieve a creamy consistency.
3. Store in an airtight jar at room temperature for about a week or refrigerate for longer shelf life.
**Tip**: Macadamia nut butter is naturally rich, so a little goes a long way. Store it in the fridge for up to 2-3 weeks.
### **Why Make Nut Butters at Home?**
– **No Unwanted Additives**: Many store-bought nut butters contain added sugar, hydrogenated oils, and preservatives. Homemade nut butters contain nothing but pure nuts (and optional flavorings), making them a healthier choice.
– **Customizable**: You can control the texture (creamy or chunky), the sweetness, and even experiment with different flavors (add cocoa for chocolate nut butter, or cinnamon for a warm twist).
– **Cost-Effective**: Buying nuts in bulk and turning them into your own nut butter saves you money in the long run.
– **Freshness**: Homemade nut butters are fresher than store-bought versions, meaning they’ll taste better and be more nutrient-dense.
