Skip the added sugar, oils, and preservatives. You can make your favorite nut butters AT HOME!
Nut butter is a staple pantry item. Creamy, delicious, and healthy - there just isn't anything bad to say. The best part, you can make your own nut butter at home in a matter of minutes with just a single ingredient: nuts. Whatever nut butter you choose, the benefits are endless. Your first step is to pick your nut...
Almonds are high in magnesium, vitamin E and fiber.
Walnuts are a good source of Omega 3s and may improve brain function.
Peanuts are a good source of magnesium and vitamin E
Cashews are high in magnesium, reduce blood pressure, and have antioxidant properties.
Next... Add your dry roasted or raw, unsalted nuts to a food processor

Now the fun part!
