This homemade pistachio butter is a fun and luxurious spin on the more classic nut butters, such as peanut butter or almond butter. Making homemade pistachio butter is surprisingly easy, all you need is raw pistachios, some good quality sea salt, and your Vibe Blender System. In approximately 4 minutes you’ll have an intensely, pistachio flavoured, creamy spread that pistachio lovers will drool over. The best part of making homemade pistachio butter is that you know exactly what’s in it and you can adjust the ad ins to your liking.
For the best favour, buy raw, unsalted, shelled pistachios. Raw pistachios are simply superior to pre-toasted nuts in quality and flavour. Briefly roasting the pistachios in the oven yourself, however, will improve the overall flavour – making your homemade pistachio butter taste more nutty, instead of grassy. Toasting the pistachios is also important because it releases the natural oils in the nut making them blend more easily into a creamy, spreadable butter.
The final appearance of your homemade pistachio butter may vary and will depend on the colour and quality of your nuts and how long they were toasted. Toasting pistachios will turn the butter browny-green.
Depending on your preferences, you can add in some good quality salt, or sweetener. Dry powdered sweeteners produce the best results. Add 1-2 teaspoons of sugar or coconut sugar. Note: Liquid sweeteners such as honey or maple syrup will cause the oils in pistachio butter to seize up and dry out immediately in the blender. If you do choose to use honey or maple syrup you will also need to add a few teaspoons of coconut oil or other neutral flavoured oil to achieve a smooth textured spread.
Since homemade pistachio butter doesn’t have preservatives or stabilises it will go rancid more quickly than store-bought nut butters. The key is to limit exposure to sunlight, heat and air, so choosing the right storage container is crucial. Glass jars with tight fitting lids are the best option because they are airtight and do not absorb flavours or odours. To enjoy your homemade pistachio butter for as long as possible store it in a 400ml Luvele Tall glass vacuum container.
If you plan to use your pistachio butter within a week, it can be stored at room temperature. Storing pistachio butter in the refrigerator will significantly extend its shelf life. The cool temperature helps slow down the oxidation process, preventing the nut butter from going rancid. Refrigeration however will cause the natural oils to solidify, resulting in a firmer texture.
