Just use your Cuisinart of Power to make your own! Use about 3 cups total of nuts to fill an old 1lb peanut butter jar. You can toast the nuts, or leave them raw. You can add soy "nuts" for extra protein. You can add spices, like cinnamon or mace, or higher protein seeds, like sesame or pumpkin. The sky's the limit! Just run the food processor for a long time until the nuts turn liquid. It takes a good 15 minutes, and makes quite a racket at first. A high-quality food processor is required; the blender/food processor combos probably don't have enough power. My 7-cup Cuisinart works great. Making nut butter is a great reason to buy one if you don't already have one. If you want your own mystery nut butter, it’s really easy. Just use your Cuisinart of Power to make your own!
