Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup shelled pistachios raw or roasted, unsalted
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup optional
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt adjust to taste
  • 1-2 tablespoons neutral oil like grapeseed or canola, optional for creaminess

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F if using raw pistachios.
  2. Spread the pistachios on a baking sheet and roast for about 8-10 minutes, or until fragrant and lightly golden. Let them cool for a few minutes.
  3. In a food processor, combine the roasted pistachios, honey or maple syrup (if using), and salt.
  4. Process for about 5-10 minutes, scraping down the sides as necessary, until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.
  5. If the mixture is too thick, add neutral oil one tablespoon at a time until you reach your desired consistency.
  6. Taste and adjust the sweetness or saltiness as needed.
  7. Once finished, transfer the pistachio butter to a clean jar and store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
