Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Place the almonds and pecans on a small baking sheet. Transfer to the preheated oven and roast for 10 to 15 minutes, rotating every 5 minutes, until nuts are lightly golden.
  2. Meanwhile, place remaining ingredients in the jug of your high-powered blender or bowl of your food processor. Add the roasted nuts, cover, and blend until smooth, about 2 minutes.
  3. Transfer to a 10 fl. oz (300 ml) jar or larger. Store in the pantry for up to 1 month or in the fridge for up to 3 months.

Notes

Marcona almonds: can be replaced with blanched almonds.

Butter-infused coconut oil: you could use any oil here, but the butter-infused is nice! If you can tolerate ghee or grass-fed butter, it would be delicious!

Eggwhite protein powder: you can use any of your favorite protein powders. Just be cognizant of the flavor they may add to the final dish.
