This small-batch Pecan Butter is incredibly fresh and has a bold, distinctly pecan flavor and a thick, smooth consistency like natural peanut butter. The salt is slightly more noticeable here than in other Georgia Grinder products but is ideal for enhancing the pecans' natural sweetness. The producer uses Elliot pecans, a popular varietal in the South known for its buttery quality and notes of hickory and oak; these woody flavors pair well with maple syrup. Or use the salted nut butter in recipes with caramel for a sweet-salty flavor combination. Atlanta-based Georgia Grinders uses only the highest-quality nuts and sea salt to make its nut butters, which are freshly ground to order for Milk Street.

This small-batch nut butter is incredibly fresh, with a clear, bold roasted hazelnut flavor. Georgia Grinders' Hazelnut Butter lets you fully savor the earthy depth and richness of pure hazelnuts. The spread has just the right ratio of creamy butter to plentiful hazelnut bits, adding textural contrast and bursts of flavor without making the spread taste “chunky” or gritty. Chocolate and hazelnuts are a classic pairing—try swirling Hazelnut Butter into brownie batter or spreading thinly between layers of a chocolate cake.

This small-batch nut butter is incredibly fresh, with a clean, bold flavor that tastes distinctly like cashews. With a high fat content and richness reminiscent of browned butter, cashew butter is often used as a vegan alternative to dairy, and many brands make their product from raw cashews for a more “neutral” taste. We like that Georgia Grinders roasts its cashews for deeper flavor. It's still a great ingredient for adding richness to vegan recipes but tastes just as delicious simply spread on bread. We especially love this one in place of peanut butter for making cookies.
