In a small glass mixing bowl place the tigernut flour. Then add 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) to the flour.
Top the mixture with cinnamon (optional). Then mix well.
Add the 2nd tbsp of olive oil. Then mix it in until it becomes a butter-like consistency (about 1 minute).
Add to your favorite fruit, veggies, gluten-free bread or just enjoy with a spoon.
Tigernut flour is a little more expensive than other types of flour, but making your own tiger nut butter is cheaper than buying already prepared jarred tiger nut butter*.
For a more savory snack add a dash of sea salt. If you want your nut butter sweeter, add a tsp of maple syrup or coconut sugar.
You can use coconut* or avocado oil* as a substitute for the extra virgin olive oil, but you may need to use a blender* or food processor* to mix the flour and coconut oil.
If you have any left over tigernut butter you can place it in a sealable container in the fridge for up to 10 days. Depending on the oil you use it may need to thaw out before eating.
