Nut butter - online puzzles

A nut butter is a spreadable foodstuff made by grinding nuts into a paste. The result has a high fat content and can be spread like true butter, but is otherwise unrelated. Nut butters include:

Almond butter

Cashew butter

Hazelnut butter

Macadamia nut butter

Peanut butter

Pecan butter

Pistachio butter

Walnut butter

The almond, cashew, macadamia, peanut, pecan, pistachio and walnut are not true nuts in a botanical sense. However, because they are considered nuts in a culinary sense, their crushed spreads are called nut butters. Similar spreads can also be made from seeds not considered nuts in a culinary sense:

Pumpkin seed butter

Sesame seed butter (usually called tahini)

Soybean butter – generally called "soynut butter " and made from soynuts (roasted soybeans)

Sunflower seed butter

Nut and seed butters have a high content of protein, fiber, and essential fatty acids, and can be used to replace butter or margarine on bread or toast.
