Cashew butter recipes

Hi everyone!

I decided to share this post today after going a bit overboard today enjoying one of my favourite vanilla coconut cashew butters (I’ll share that recipe in another post perhaps!).

Oh, cashews. Filled with heart healthy monounsaturated fats, copper for helping out with the processes in our bodies that need an enzyme to speed them up, and minerals to keep our bones strong, cashews are one killer snack. However why stop with eating them plain when they’ve got so much potential? Cashews are totally perfect for making luxurious nut butters (I promise, I’ve made these more than once!).

So here are seven of the best cashew butter recipes to get you excited!

1. Vanilla cashew butter from She Knows.

Cashews fit into the realms of both sweet and savoury, making them a really diverse and fabulous ingredient. Let me know if you prefer cashew butter or whether another nut butter tickles your fancy in the comments below.

Until next time,
