Raw Walnut Butter with Natural Dried Apples & Cinnamon

Raw, heart-healthy, vegan-friendly, gluten- and soy-free — you’ll love this simple walnut & apple butter. We love using a combination of our dried Fuji and Granny Smith apples for a sweet-tart depth of flavor. 

We have a huge dried fruit & nut section at both of our markets! John Sigona, Jr., one of the co-founders of our markets, has been buying dried fruits and nuts for almost 50 years. It’s safe to say he knows quality when he sees and tastes it. We’ve worked with some of the same growers for our products for almost 50 years as well, to ensure quality and excellence.

Raw Walnut Butter with Natural Dried Apples & Cinnamon

Raw, heart-healthy, vegan-friendly, gluten- and soy-free — you’ll love this simple walnut & apple butter. We love using a combination of our dried Fuji and Granny Smith apples for a sweet-tart depth of flavor. We were inspired by A Clean Bake for this recipe, where the author notes that the cinnamon can be replaced with pumpkin pie seasoning (it is fall, after all!). Makes about 1 1/2 cups.

Instructions
 

  • Add the walnuts and apples to a food processor fitted with a blade. Pulse to bring them together then process until it reaches a ball in a dough-like consistency.
  • With the blade running, drizzle in about 1/4 cup oil. Add more, a tablespoon at a time, until the mixture is mostly smooth. Note that the consistency will likely remain somewhat chunky, similar to fresh-ground almond butter. You may find you need more than 1/2 cup oil to reach a desired consistency.
  • Add in the cinnamon and salt, process to incorporate. Add more cinnamon as desired.
  • Mixture may be stored in an air-tight container for up to 2 weeks.
