Ingredients
Directions
- Roast pecans on medium heat for 5-8 minutes (until fragrant), stirring often. Put aside to cool.
- Blend roasted pecans with cinnamon and salt (to taste) in the food processor until smooth (it can take anywhere between 2 and 15 minutes - depending on your machine). Don't let the mixture get hot in the process - if it does, the oil might start to separate and we don't want that.
