Maple Walnut Butter

Submitted by JamesDeansGirl

"My father has been putting this on his pancakes, waffles, and French toast since my parents got married almost 32 years ago! (Mom always had ways of spoiling us!)...Thanks to Dad, now all the men in our family (brothers, in laws, and husbands) do the same! Mom has made this with all kinds of nuts, but walnut is Dad's favorite. Give it a try;)"

My 8 year old Grandson and I made this and it was wonderful. So far we have just had it on toast, but can't wait to spread it across a waffle.
