Honey Roasted Macadamia Butter

December 18, 2013 · by Ari ·

Drippy, sweet and melty honey roasted macadamia butter. All it takes is one ingredient and 5 minutes to create your new favorite spread.

Honey Roasted Macadamia Butter

I’m really not the “DIY” type. As much as I love anything homemade, especially when it’s heartfelt, bringing myself to devote hours of time to a craft that I will inevitably be unhappy with when I finish is just not something I can usually do. I am, however, in total awe of people who can/do. Honestly, anyone that can make things look pretty, or at least not look like a kindergartner made it is totally impressive in my book.

Most of the time when I see a “Beautiful #DIY Gift Idea #Christmas” on Pinterest, I steer clear, and remind myself that the “5 Minute Up-Do” I found took me more like an hour, and I still wasn’t satisfied with the result.

But food? That I can do. Even DIY food. I love making people treats, especially things you can’t buy in the store, and I adore stuffing my family’s stockings with homemade nut butters, granola, and puppy chow rather than candy canes filled with m&ms.

So meet my newest obsession. The best, drippiest nut butter I have ever tastes. Now, if you like a more solid texture, not to worry! Stick this baby in the fridge, and you will get more of a traditional peanut butter texture, but I LOVE the way it drips right off the spoon, and has almost a melted texture. Macadamia nuts are the best nuts for spreads, in my opinion. They always come together super easy and quickly with no food processor starting and stopping. This DIY project will literally take you 5 minutes. 10 if you include dishes, but I wouldn’t know since I don’t actually do those.

I found my honey roasted macadamia nuts at Trader Joe’s, but I’m sure you could also find them online, or make your own!

    I cannot even remember the last time I had macadamia nuts! but they are so good! 🙂 This sounds like it could be amazing in oatmeal!

    You should do a recipe with chestnuts. I am obsessed with them!

      Wait, you eat nuts??? I can totally do that! And yes, this is amazing in oatmeal. I can’t wait to get to the end of the jar and eat my oatmeal out of it. 😉

    Yessss! I’m a macadamia nut’s #1 fan! I could seriously eat them by the cup-ful. I’ve never turned them into butter, but I think that needs to change pronto. This is such an awesome gift idea!

      Me too! They are probably my favorite nut, and definitely my favorite nut butter!
