This Super Seed Nut Butter is made with a variety of nuts and seeds, creating a smooth and creamy spread that’s super flavorful and loaded with nutrients. This delicious homemade nut + seed butter comes together quickly in a blender or food processor.

You wouldn’t believe the amount of nut butter that I go through. I’m constantly finishing jars of it, sharing it with friends and family, and using it all on my own…I’d say that nut butter has become one of my main food groups.
I love it slathered all over apples, but I also devour my various nut butter flavors with bananas, swirled into my oatmeal, dripped on a smoothie bowl, and by the spoonful (no shame).

Ever since I completed my Whole30, I’ve been loving creating my nut butter in my kitchen. I still have lots of my favorite nut butter brands, but sometimes I want to create my own unique flavors and see what unique goodness I can come up with.
I make my nut butters in my Vitamix because they always come together so quickly (like 2-3 minutes), and there’s less scraping required compared to a food processor.

If you only have a food processor or your blender just isn’t powerful enough, you can still definitely make this. It’ll just take a little bit longer. It’s so worth it, though!
Let’s make Super Seed Nut Butter!
For this super seed nut butter, I wanted to make a mix of my favorite nuts and seeds. It turned out spectacularly delicious. Pecans are among my favorites, and I’m totally obsessed with pecan butter, so naturally, they had to be involved. Because they have a high fat content, they help make the nut butter super drippy.

Cashews and almonds are the other two nuts I used. I love them so much, and they make such luscious, creamy butter. In addition to the nuts, I packed in some sunflower seeds, which blend into a creamy butter with the nuts. I also loaded it up with chia seeds and flax seeds, which add a little bit of crunchy texture.
Texture is very important to me, so that little bit of crunch from the chia and flax seeds was just the thing to make it perfect. For flavor, cinnamon and salt really come through, making this butter incredibly delicious.

I like my nut butters to have a whole bunch of spice! Because nut butters contain a high amount of fat, they require a lot of spice to bring out the flavor effectively. I used more than a tablespoon of cinnamon here, and it was perfect for me. After letting it sit for a day, the flavors have melded. It almost reminds me of a graham cracker with all the cinnamon. So swoon-worthy!

After editing the photos of this drippy deliciousness, I was inspired to make another jar…so I’m happily VERY well stocked in super seed nut butter for a while. Off to go have a spoonful – I recommend you make yourself a batch so you can do the same :) enjoy!

Super Seed Nut Butter
Ingredients
- 1 cup raw pecans
- 1 cup raw cashews
- 1 cup raw almonds
- ½ cup raw sunflower seeds
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons flax seeds
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- Optional: cinnamon, vanilla extract, and/or coconut oil, to taste, see Notes
Instructions
- Combine the pecans, cashews, almonds, and sunflower seeds in your food processor or high-powered blender (I used my Vitamix). Process for about 3-6 minutes, scraping down as necessary. Your time might be shorter if you’re using a high-powered blender – it will take a little bit longer in the food processor and require more scraping down.
- When the nuts have broken down into a smooth, creamy butter, add the chia seeds, salt, and cinnamon and/or vanilla extract, if you’re using. Process to incorporate, and taste. Adjust add-ins as desired. If it’s not blending up as smoothly or thinly as you want, add a little bit of coconut oil here.
- Transfer to a glass jar or two (like a mason or Weck jar) and store for 2-3 months.

I love a good nut butter and I LOVE all the healthy seeds that you packed into this killer nut butter! This would be insanely good on toast in the morning!
Thanks so much Sarah – it’s good on pretty much everything!! :)
I’m right there with you in terms of nut butter addition <3 This reminds me of the new Mixed Nut Butter from Trader Joe's. I wasn't expecting the different consistency (peanut & almond butters are so much more solid) and immediately fell in love with the flavor. I can't wait to give your recipe a try – because I vow to #NeverRunOutOfNutButter again!!
I haven’t tried their new mixed nut butter because I’ve been STOCKED with so many homemade flavors, I need to pick it up soon though! Thanks Natalie :)
These photos are stunning, Rachel! Omg, and I just want to dive into that butter!
Honestly, I eat so much of it myself I’m not sure why I’ve NEVER made it. Yes, you heard that right. I’ve never made my own nut butter. I think I love Trader Joe’s too much, but this super seed batch may be the thing that makes me take the leap!
You neeeed to try it Megan! I used to never make my own but gobbled it up so quickly, and now that I make my own I can’t make it often enough :) so fun playing with new flavors, too. Thanks lovely!
We can not keep nut butters in stock around my place either. Always finishing jars lol. This looks sooooo good. I love your photography
Thank you so very much Cara! I definitely feel you on constantly finishing nut butter jars :)
A nut butter that is loaded with cinnamon and tastes like a graham cracker? Freakin’ SIGN ME UP!!!
haha yup nut butter is one of my main food groups as well! This sounds amazing!! I would love a big spoonful right now!
We go through so much nut butter! Love this combination of seeds and nuts! We’ll be trying this soon!
OMG, this looks amazing! I’m going to make it tomorrow! Question-have you tried toasting the nuts prior to blending? Just wondered if I should give it a shot or if you’ve tried it and don’t recommend it.
Thanks!
Hi Maureen – YES, I roasted them the second time I made it and it’s super delicious! Just roast the nuts at 350 for 10-12 minutes or until golden and fragrant, and then let them cool completely before proceeding with the recipe. Enjoy!!
YAAASSS!!! Toasted pecans make me swoon! Thank you, Rachel!
