Tasty on bread
Peanut butter is one of my favorites. I can really put it on anything: "old-school" on bread and crackers, but I also use it in my vegetable curries, through my oatmeal and I make healthy cookies with it. Since I try to alternate as much as possible in what I eat, it was high time I started stocking up on other nut spreads. There are many kinds for sale in (health) stores. But making your own is much more fun! You can be sure that there are no unnecessary additives and that the nuts are as unprocessed as possible. And more importantly: you can experiment with extra flavorings to make the spread even tastier than the one from the store! This time I made cashew spread with vanilla.

Did you know that nuts have different compositions of nutrients? For that reason alone, it is a good idea to alternate your peanut butter! Compared to other notes, the cashew nut has a high protein content and it excels in its high content of magnesium, iron and phosphorus. What is also unique about cashew nuts is that they contain many B vitamins that contribute to good energy metabolism. The cashew nut is therefore a real winner, especially if you eat little or no meat or dairy products.
I chose to make a spread of cashew nuts. I added some real vanilla what turned out to be a heavenly combination ... Jumm…. The taste even reminded me a bit of that of white chocolate ... so creamy !! Are you not a fan of cashew nuts? No problem, nut spreads can be made with all the notes you want. Try the Combi Hazelnuten-Cacao or Almond honey!
