I got a food processor the other day and I’m completely obsessed with it.
Every time I go to Walmart, I check out Sahale’s Snacks to see what kind of nuts I can use to make a new nut butter. The bags that they come in are the perfect size for making a “batch” and they seriously make the bessstt nut butter! So far I’ve only used the almonds with honey and sea salt and cashews with pomegranate and vanilla but they are both delicious and sweet. These aren’t Sahale, but I’ve also used vanilla powdered almonds and, of course, regular peanuts. Pretty much whatever I can get my hands on, I try and put in the food processor. I’ve even put some raisins and dried apples in there… don’t do that.
Speaking of obsessions, I also went through a pumpkin butter obsession. I have probably gone through 5 cans of pumpkin just making pumpkin butter the past 2 months. It’s good on everything, like chocolate. It’s really easy to make, too. Join me in my obsession and make these!
