Avocado-Walnut Butter
Author: Nicole
Ingredients
  • 3 avocados (preferably organic)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • ¾ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • ½ teaspoon fleur de sel salt (or other coarse sea salt)
  • 6 tablespoons walnut oil
  • Toasted multi-grain baguette slices
  • Optional: garnish with 2 tablespoons chopped roasted walnuts
Instructions
  1. Cut avocados in half and remove pit and skin.
  2. Place avocados in food processor. Add lemon juice, cayenne pepper and salt. Process until smooth - scraping down the sides. With motor running slowly drizzle in the walnut oil and process until smooth.
  3. Cover and chill for one hour.
  4. Garnish with 2 tablespoons chopped roasted walnuts, if desired.
  5. Serve with toasted multi-grain baguette slices.
Notes
To toast baguette slices: slice baguette at an angle and place pieces directly on an oven rack (it may be easier to remove the rack from the oven to do this). Bake at 425°F for 5-6 minutes until crispy. Let cool.
