Now, I haven't been paying attention to the nut butter recipes, and assume I can make my own with almond flour. If anyone has easy, tried and true nut butter recipes and is able, please send them to me offlist in their entirety. I won't have access to my friend with internet till tomorrow. Take care, Fay P.S. Can we trust commercially prepared nut butters, like Trader Joe's, that just has salt and/or peanuts listed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 Fay, You can make any recipe that call for nut flour with nut butter. Use the same amount of nut butter as nut flour. We use Maranatha organic peanut butter because we like the taste better than any of the other brands. Jody mom to -7 and -9 SCD 1/03 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just searched out a brand called Futters and of course, Marantha that look typically like the kind we use. You can grind your own at Whole Foods or HFS. (Health Food Stores) BTW: Will you be using blanched almonds for your homemade nut flour? Make sure cashew butter is not from roasted cashews unless you can check to see that no starch has been added. Carol F. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to buy legal flour; I have some and may try to make butter out of it in the food processor. I'm just not sure about adapting recipes.

Guest guest Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 " I'm just not sure about adapting recipes. " The recipes do not need altered in any way.

The two recipes I would most use are the cheese crackers in what I think of as the other Lucy's cookbook, the one with the Indian recipes, and blueberry muffins from the Grain Free Gourmet. I think the first should be fine with the butter, and we'll see about the second. Take care, Fay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 I think you are referring to Raman's cookbook (the one with Indian recipes). I don't have the Grain Free Gourmet cookbook yet. So, I haven't tried any of those. Jody mom to -7 and -9 SCD 1/03 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
