Why You Should Eat More Ezra Cohen Montreal Pecan Nut Butter

As you could probably guess, we eat a lot of nut butter here at Ezra Cohen Montreal. And lately, we’ve been particularly enamored with our roasted pecan butter, enhanced with the sweet richness of pralines.

Nothing says fall like pecans. These velvety smooth nuts have an intense depth of flavor and can more than hold their own next to other seasonal staples (we’ll take pecan pie over pumpkin pie any day of the week). They’re also immensely good for you. Below, we’ll tackle the topic of pecan butter nutrition and share some of our favorite pecan butter uses so that you can enjoy even more of the good stuff.

Pecan Butter Health Benefits

Looking at nutritional content alone, pecan butter is one of the healthiest nut butters that you can eat. That’s because pecans are naturally stocked with a wide range of necessary vitamins and minerals—more than 19 of them, in fact!—including potassium, fiber, and vitamin E. And while it’s slightly higher in fat than other nut butter varieties, it’s also chockful of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, both of which are integral to a healthy diet.

When you eat pecan butter, you get more than just great flavor—you also get a ton of health benefits. These include:

• Support for cardiovascular and digestive health
• Assistance with weight loss
• Minerals that keep teeth and bones strong
• A boost for your immune system
• Reduced blood pressure

Working more pecan nut butter into your diet is a simple way to get more of the things that your body needs, and it certainly doesn’t hurt that it tastes great too. As for ways to enjoy it beyond just eating it off the spoon, we’ve got some ideas.
