I’ve am now obsessed with making my own nut butter! It’s super easy and you can save lots of money! I have always wanted to try Nuttzo, a type of nut and seed butter, but its so expensive that I will not dare even to go near the stuff! Seriously, $15.00 for a jar that I can polish off in a week, no thank you.
Homemade Nut and Seed Butter
Thank fully I made my own homemade nuttzo, and I believe that its even better then the store bought! I added my own banana bread flavoring (all natural and refined sugar-free of course), and voila, the most amazing, cheapest nut (and seed) butter you will ever taste!
Banana Bread Nut and Seed Butter
(adapted from My Healthy, Happy Home)
- 1 cup almonds
- 1/4 cup pecans
- 1/4 cup walnuts
- 2 Tbsp. sunflower seeds
- 2 Tbsp. pumpkin seeds
- 1 1/2 ripe bananas, mashed
- 1 Tbsp. coconut sugar
- 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp. vanilla extract
- Place all nuts and seeds on a cooking sheet and bake at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes, or until slightly toasted (you can skip this step if you would like).
- Place all nuts and seeds in a food processor and blend until a butter forms, about 3-5 minutes.
- In a small sauce pan, add banana, coconut sugar, cinnamon and vanilla. Place on low heat for about 5-7 minutes, or until mixture resembles a sauce.
- Add banana mixture to nut and seed butter and blend in food processor for another 2-3 minutes, or until blended evenly.
- Enjoy!

Obviously this is better than Nuttzo! Actually the one and only time I had nutzzo, I felt sick afterwards and hated it! haha! I need to try it again, but I like this better 😉 XOXO
oh my goodness I literally can’t wait to get out of the gym to go home and make this. I’m in the same boat and can’t afford expensive nut butters. Love banana bread can’t wait!!
This looks absolutely delicious! Oh my word, thank you for sharing 🙂 This could be perfect on pretty much anything, I would think.
haha yes i agree!
yay! Let me know if you do make it! 🙂
thank you! 🙂
OMG- so yum! I want to dip everything in this right now!
Looks amazing!
Sounds deeeelicious! My husband would adore this.
Besides eating this by the spoonful, on a slice of warm banana bread?! Heaven.
This nut and seed butter sounds insanely delicious! Making nut butters and nut milks save me so much money, and the best part is being able to play around with flavours. Can’t wait to try this!

Das MUSS ich unbedingt mal machen … hört sich super lecker an 🙂
thanks
This looks amazing!! I am obsessed with banana bread so I bet I could eat this with a spoon. 🙂 I need to make my own almond butter, honestly I’ve been a little scared to, but it sure looks like it’s worth it!
