I really like that this pecan spread is as healthy as possible, with no dairy products and no added sugar, the spread being naturally sweetened with dates only.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/4 cup (40g) cashews
  • 1/4 cup (40g) almonds
  • 1/2 cup (75g) pitted dates
  • 1 cup (150g) pecan nuts
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) vegetal oil neutral in taste (rapeseed, sunflower oil…)
  • 1 1/2 Tablespoons cocoa powder, unsweetened
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) water, to adjust

Instructions

  1. Soak cashews and almonds in separate shallow dishes for at least 4 hours (or overnight). If you don’t use fresh dates, soak them as well in a third separate dish.
  2. Mix all the ingredients in a food processor until you get a smooth texture. Add more water if needed.
  3. Pour the pecan paste into a glass jar and store in the refrigerator. Spread on a toast and enjoy!

Notes

*Store in the refrigerator in a airtight container for up to one week.
