Nutcessity: Organic Gingerbread Almond Nut Butter

Description

Nutcessity makes organic, unconventional nut butter in new textures and flavours than what you might currently know! Since 2016 our founder Mike has been blending with almonds, walnuts, cashews and coconut to create something that satisfies his love of nut butter. All Nutcessity products are organic, plastic-free certified and made with zero added oil or sugar.

Our Gingerbread Almond is fruity, tangy and slightly sweet – we use dried apricots to sweeten, but don’t add any sugar (or oil). Because we use pumpkin seeds, almonds and apricot, this product is high in iron. Made with ground ginger and ground cinnamon, our stone-ground nut spreads have a smooth, but slightly coarse texture which we’d describe as being on the smoother end of ‘crunchy’ and ‘smooth’.

Organic Ingredients (Allergens in BOLD): ALMONDS (32%), coconut, pumpkin seed, apricot, cinnamon, ginger & pink Himalayan salt* (* = approved non-organic ingredient).

The coconut we use is the roasted flesh, meaning you digest all the fibre from the fruit, as well as the heart healthy fats. Because we use coconut, the texture of our nut butter is fickle – it will be ‘set’, ‘firm’ or ‘fudgy’ in colder environments, and ‘creamy’ ‘smooth’ and ‘spreadable’ in warmer climates. For this reason, we don’t recommend you refrigerate our products – there is simply no need!

Being socially and environmentally responsible is important to us – which is why we are certified as organic and plastic-free. We use a paper-based label on our jars which is easy to remove. This way, you can use our unique squat jar again and again. Furthermore, consuming organic products has been proven to be a more sustainable action for our climate; reducing soil erosion and limiting the digestion of hormones, additives and pesticides (according to the Soil Association). When you buy a jar of Nutcessity nut butter, you are essentially buying a blended-up trail mix: to be spread, spooned, or chiselled onto whatever you like – porridge, pancakes or stewed fruit!
