Definitely!  We make all our own nut butters - sometimes I make them from the raw nuts (especially with cashews), but most often I dry roast them first in the oven, then grind them up on speed 9 with some sea salt and a bit of Rapadura to taste, and a little oil if needed.  I usually add macadamia nuts to whatever nut butter I'm making, then I don't need to add any oil, as the macadamia nuts are so oily.  We love the recipe in the Vegetarian cookbook - it has almonds and a mixture of seeds in it, and is really yummy!!! 

Hi there.
I made the high protein but paste from the veg cook book and it is delish!!!
But, I used about 200ml of organic macadamia oil to turn it from powder to paste- very expensive!!
Is this right? I stuck to recipe with nut and seed quantities.
How many grams of macadamia nuts did you use so that you didn't need oil and would this be healthier and less expensive than the oil?
Thanks
