Crickey, I am absolutely rapt when i get the chance to learn a whole new technique rather than just a recipe! I don't know why I hadn't thought of making my own nut butters this way before but I can be sure I will be doing it again. I made a smaller batch just for me in my mini chopper. Then I spread it on a toasted cinnamon and raisin bagel and drizzled it with just a touch of Australian honey. It was beautiful for breakfast. I am sure this will work well with a variety of nuts but that buttery texture of the Macadamia nuts really lent itself to this method. I think that the only thing I might try slightly differently next time is just to roast the nuts first. It was great as written but I just would like to see how it turns out that way too. Thanks! Made for the Chow Hound team in ZWT5.

Thanks for a super-simple, super-quick way to make macadamia nut butter. On this occasion, we enjoyed some on toast and followed Sarah_Jayne's suggestion and added some honey. YUM! I love macadamias and I'm going to make this butter for spreading on my sandwiches. It would be great with so many fillings. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe. Made for ZWT 5.

Though I am usually reluctant to give 5 stars to a recipe with one ingredient, this was worth it. I actually ditched my food processor a while back because I was moving and hardly ever used it, so I processed this in the blender. That worked out great! I did add a little water because I thought it may need it, but in the end I decided it was not necessary. Thanks for this, it's better than peanut butter

This is so easy and scrumptious! I had never really made a nut butter before and am so glad I tried this...It is awesome! I used 1 1/2 cups of nuts, and ran the food processor for 3 minutes, as directed. Thanks WiGal, for an easy addition to my cookbook! Made for ZWT 5.
