nut butters
Creamy seed spreads
Nut butters are smooth or chunky spreads made by grinding nuts—peanut butter being the most familiar, with almond, cashew, and other varieties increasingly common.
The nuts are processed until their natural oils create a spreadable paste.
She switched from peanut butter to almond butter.
The term distinguishes these from dairy butter.
