Three Nut Butter

We all love peanut butter in our household and neither Luke nor I can face the day without our toast and jam and peanut butter fix. The best peanut butters are ones without any added salt, sugar or palm oil. such as Whole Earth and Suma. It is, however, surprisingly easy to make your own peanut butter and you don't have to limit yourself to peanuts. This recipe uses three types of nut, hence the name.
