Ingredients
3
cups
pecans, raw, unsalted
1
tsp
ground cinnamon
1/4
tsp
salt
1
T
vanilla extract
2
T
pure maple syrup
optional
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Spread pecans evenly on a large baking sheet and roast for 10 minutes.
Add roasted pecans, cinnamon, salt and vanilla extract to a food processor.
Process for 2 minutes, or until smooth. At first you may need to stop to scrape down sides.
Remove blade from food processor (or transfer pecan butter to a mixing bowl) and stir in maple syrup, if desired.
Transfer to a jar with a lid. Can be served immediately. Store refrigerated.
Notes
Not including maple syrup will result in a delicious, though less sweet final product.
