Try a different nut butter - it will still turn out fabulously.

I made these for our family easter gathering, and my non-raw relatives LOVED them! I got raves about them all day. Mmmmmmm

I had about 3/4 cup of almond pulp that I added to this recipe. I'm not sure how much it changed the intended flavor, but they were a big hit and a dinner party last night The non raw foodies LOVED them - me too. They smell wonderful and taste delicious.

I just made these and could have just ate the mixture out of the bowl! They are wonderful.

YUMMMMMMMMY! Everyone in my family loves them!

absolutely fantastic, my first raw food. I'm definatley going to start raw with deserts high in oats, nuts, and, fruits. Oh and I used 2t. cinnamon, 2 t. ginger. I didn't have the nutmeg and cardaman. Thank you.

OMG. These are not going to make it to the dehydrator! I made half the batch plain and half with cacao powder. I also used artisana goji bliss in place of plain coconut butter. Whoa... whoa...

those were really good!

Making your own nut butter is very easy with a food processor. Just let it run until you see oil beginning to bead. Check your processor's manual for recommended amounts. For example, I use a 7 cup capacity Cuisinart DLC-10S and the recommended amount of nuts is up to two (2) cups. I make all my own almond butter and tahini in this machine. The almonds are very loud at first. The whole processing time is about twenty (20) minutes. You'll need to scrape the bowl down a few times, especially in the earlier stages (the nuts/seeds go through several distinct stages from flourier to doughy, before finally becoming buttery). The motor does get warm, and processing alone generates heat (friction). I've measured temperatures as high as 140-150 f when making consecutive batches. Hardcore types can break the processing time into separate sessions of less time each, refrigerating the nuts to bring the temperature back down between processing sessions.

So so good! We don't really get raw nut butters in NZ either so I just blended some almonds with a bit of water as a replacement. Worked out great.

I just made these and the mix is already a HIT!! Everyone is so excited for Thursday afternoon to get here. Thank you SOOOO much for this recipe!

Sorry for the blank comment above ~ learning how this works. Santam, I make my own raw almond butter by putting raw almonds right out of the freezer through the Chamption juicer with the blank in place. The first part coming out may seem a little dry, but quickly becomes the most delicious butter. I can get about a cup made before the juicer gets warm, but it is enough to enjoy on sliced apples, and use in recipes. I can get a cup or more of almond butter before the Champion begins to get warm.

Just wanted to say these cookies are the BEST raw cookies I've ever made!! Just DELICIOUS!

These cookies are wonderful!! I brought them to a non-raw BBQ last weekend and they were a mega hit!

These cookies look good, taste great and make your home smell delicious (while in your dehydrator). I just tried them this week. Thanks :-)
