Natural nut butter

Who doesn’t have at least one jar of peanut butter in their pantry for late-night cravings? As big nut butter brands use preservatives that keep their products shelf stable, the oils in natural nut butter will still separate. In the same way, nuts can go rancid if you keep them in a kitchen cabinet, and so will natural nut butter.
