Ingredients: Western Australian Pecan nuts

Pecans are related to hickory trees and are native to North America. These wonderful raw Pecans are grown and processed right here in Western Australia in Collie. They have a wonderfully fresh, sweet nut flavour and aroma with a creamy texture, naturally softer than some other varieties of nuts. They are a delicious nut to snack on, or fabulous added to a range of raw foods, baked goods and savoury recipes. Freshly ground Pecan meal (or flour) and nut-butter are also popular and easy to make. These Australian grown nuts are irresistible.

Australian Pecans are a fabulous snack on their own, or delicious with plump dried fruits in a yummy hiker’s mix. These raw nuts are great roughly chopped and added to muesli, smoothie bowls, and oat or quinoa porridge. Pecans can be ground to a fresh ‘meal’ suitable for sprinkling over desserts and savoury dishes, or adding to baking recipes.

Or blend finely ground nuts, with a little oil, into smooth dairy-free nut butter. Pecans add a little crunch to rice, quinoa or green salads; or try replacing walnuts in a ‘Waldorf’. Toss chopped nuts over stir-fries, noodles and hotpots or add to the couscous. Pecans are a star in baking recipes, especially muffins, boiled fruit cakes, choc-chip cookies, nut & seed bread and, of course, the classic Pecan pie.

For a real treat, lightly toast these pecans in a little pure maple syrup – great for nibbling; served with non dairy yoghurt, fruit salad or ice cream; added to homemade chocolate recipes; or for something special when entertaining.
