Octonuts Dry Roasted Pure Cashew 16oz Nut Butter 16oz - Pure Creamy Nut Butter - Gluten Free, Vegan, Kosher, Paleo, Non-GMO Nut Butters Single Ingredient

This is kinda crazy because this product is very different than you might expect.I use Octonuts protein powder ever morning and night because it tastes fantastic and improves the flavor of my supplements (makes for a great "milkshake". I decided to give some of their actual nut butters a try on a whim.The almond maple butter tastes amazing with great flavor and the sea salt caramel does as well. What I wasn't expecting was the texture and taste.So these nut butters use "natural flavors" which is lawyer-speak for chemical flavoring (derived from a natural source) and that's a strike against them, but compared to the competition (peanut butter with palm oil, etc) the ingredients list is a shining star. It's mostly just nuts, with salt and sugar so it doesn't taste terrible. The natural flavoring is just to make it taste like you've added something that wouldn't be shelf stable.At any rate without the palm oil or hydrogenated oils of most butters you get a natural separation of the oil and protein, so it will get lumpy. This is not a downside but a sign that it has good ingredients.If you want it to be more solid (but still extremely soft) put it in the fridge to firm it up a little. If you don't, well it's like pouring out caramel sauce.The flavor may be natural flavoring but it's extremely stong and sweet tasting. A little bit goes a long, LONG way. I would pour this stuff over cake, pie, ice cream, muffins, anything you want a little caramel sauce over.If you spread it on bread I would use very little or it may be overpowering.Great stuff. It tastes amazing and will go a long way.

Oh my goodness, when you want a nice treat that is so yummy you should try this! It was a bit pricey but it’s really worth it. It is smooth and creamy and easy to stir the oil, I’ve never had anything like it before. I would recommend buying it!

This is the most amazing almond butter. First, it is smooth, unlike many almond butters. Second, it is maple-flavored! Who doesn't love maple? This brings the right combination of salty and sweet right to the table.

I like the fact that it has nothing added and is just almonds. The flavor tastes good and fresh. You will need to pour it on your food from the jar as it is very runny, even after stirring and refrigerating. For that reason, I will continue to look for another option. I prefer a thicker almond butter.

It’s a thick cream, good taste and consistency. Perfect for baking as its flavor doesn’t prevail like when using almond or peanut butter. Not so easily spreadable on bread. Good value and quality. Healthy.

I wasn’t sure how the almond butter maple was going to go… but it went fantastic. :)Seal was on and no leaks. A lot of oil was separated when I opened it and it took a lot of work in a mixing bowl to get it incorporated for the same consistency. That was fine since I was using it all in a recipe. It would not be practical for small daily use as it was so thick and solid in the center, a simple stir would not have fixed that and would certainly have been difficult to spread.I tasted it before baking with it and the maple flavor drowns out the nut flavor pretty much but pleasantly. It’s not a cloying maple taste, but just regular-bodied like a light maple syrup. Post cooking, it had no heavy nut flavor but the maple shone through. I’d be interested in trying the regular almond butter.This is not cheap, though; almond butter is still pricier than peanut butter.Pic is the finished recipe product. It was fabulous and got rave reviews. Here’s the recipe:16 oz jar Octonuts almond maple butter2/3 cup maple syrup2 eggs1 teaspoon baking powder3 tablespoons cocoa powder1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)1 cup chocolate chips (I used Enjoy Life mini chips which makes it dairy and gluten free)Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix everything but the chocolate chips in a bowl. Fold in chocolate chips. Spread in 9x13 pan. (I lined my pan with parchment paper.) Cook for about 22 minutes. Cool completely and then lift out of pan by parchment paper. Cut into bars. Can be refrigerated or frozen.

So this Salted Caramel flavor cashew butter tastes fantastic, however the consistency was really strange. It's pretty oily and separated for one but it was so dense in some parts after the separation that no matter how much I tried to stir the product up to create a smooth texture, there's thick chuncks still unfortnatley. It's not a crunchy mixture either so since some parts are oily or dense when you spread it on bread for example and take a bite, some of the dense cashew butter is getting stuck In my teeth which really isn't great for a nut butter. Maybe It was the batch I received, but I would prefer a much smoother consistency.

This almond butter is tasty and doesn't separate out quickly, so it is easy to spread. I bought it because it only contains almonds--unlike most other brands that mix in palm oil and other unwholesome ingredients. As someone who loves almond butter as a snack, I am happy to have found this brand!
