Ezra Cohen Montreal’s Brazil Nut Butter Fruit Wraps

Fruit Wrap
August 17, 2023 by Ezra Cohen No Comments

Are you craving a nutritious AND delicious start to your day? Or perhaps an energizing snack for that midday slump? Dive into the world of Brazil nut recipes with our Brazil nut butter fruit wraps. This recipe is a culinary delight blending the rich flavors of Brazil nut butter with the natural sweetness of fruits.

Brought to you by Ezra Cohen Montreal, these wraps are a testament to how a simple breakfast fruit wrap recipe can evolve into a gourmet experience.

Ingredient Insight:

  1. Brazil Nut Butter: An adequate alternative to the traditional peanut or almond butter, Brazil nut butter delivers a creamy, slightly sweet flavor and is packed with selenium, a powerful antioxidant.
  2. Whole Wheat Tortilla: A soft, pliable base for our wrap. It’s not just a vehicle for the filling but adds its own subtle flavor and is rich in fibers.
  3. Seasonal Fruits: The natural sweetness, tang, and freshness of fruits like pear, apple, peach, and berries transform this wrap into a delightful treat. Each fruit brings its own nutritional profile and unique taste to the table.
  4. Ground Cinnamon: A spice that adds warmth and an aromatic sweetness, complementing both the nut butter and fruits.

Health Benefits of Brazil Nuts

Brazil nuts aren’t just tasty; they’re a nutritional powerhouse. Bursting with selenium, they help support a healthy immune system and regulate thyroid function. Additionally, they offer heart-healthy unsaturated fats and are a natural source of magnesium, copper, and zinc. And to top it off, including them in your diet can benefit skin health and combat oxidative stress!

Ingredients List

  • 1 8-inch whole-grain tortilla
  • 2 tablespoons of Ezra Cohen Montreal Brazil nut butter
  • 1/2 cup of your choice of thinly sliced fresh fruit (like mango, kiwi, or berries). Feel free to mix and match based on the season!
  • A sprinkle of ground nutmeg or cinnamon (optional for added flavor)
  • 1 tablespoon of coconut flakes or chia seeds (optional for texture and added nutrients)

Instructions

  1. Lay out the whole wheat tortilla on a flat surface.
  2. Evenly spread the Brazil nut butter onto the tortilla, ensuring you reach the edges to make a sticky “seal” for the wrap.
  3. Delicately sprinkle the ground cinnamon over the Brazil nut butter layer.
  4. Place the thinly sliced fruit of your choice across the center of the tortilla.
  5. Gently roll up the tortilla, ensuring the wrap is tight and compact.
  6. Slice the wrap into bite-sized pieces if desired, or enjoy it whole.

Favorite Variations

  • Brazil nut butter with strawberries and a hint of mint.
  • Brazil nut butter with apple slices and a sprinkle of granola for crunch.
  • Brazil nut butter paired with bananas and drizzled honey.
  • Brazil nut butter, mango slices, and shredded coconut for a tropical twist.

The olive oil brings its own subtle flavor while also assisting in sautéing the vegetables. Onions and garlic form the aromatic base of the dish, releasing their distinct flavors upon sautéing.

Mushrooms provide a satisfyingly meaty texture, while the bright, fresh snap peas add a sweet crunch. The bedrock of the dish, rice noodles, is known for its versatility, absorbing all the flavors beautifully.

The stir-fry sauce is a masterpiece in itself. Spicy Sesame Oil lends a fiery kick, balanced perfectly by the salty umami of soy sauce and the zesty tang of lime juice. Coconut sugar and mirin add a hint of sweetness, with rice vinegar providing a pleasant sourness. Water is essential to achieve the desired consistency of the sauce.

Before we get into the instructions, here are some tips for stir fry: be sure to prep all your ingredients beforehand, as stir-frying is a quick process. Additionally, using a large enough pan will prevent overcrowding and ensure your ingredients cook evenly.

  • 2 tbsp Fresh Lime Juice
  • 2 tbsp Coconut Sugar
  • 1 tbsp Mirin
  • 1 tbsp Rice Vinegar
  • 3-4 tbsp Water, adjusted to desired consistency

Instructions:

  1. Begin by preparing your stir fry sauce. Combine all the sauce ingredients (excluding water) in a bowl and mix well. Gradually add water, stirring until you reach the desired consistency.
  2. In a large skillet, heat 1 tbsp olive oil. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing for about 3-5 minutes until they start to brown. Once done, transfer to a bowl.
  3. In the same skillet, heat another 1-2 tbsp of olive oil and sauté the sliced mushrooms for approximately 5 minutes until browned.
  4. Incorporate the snap peas into the skillet, sautéing for 2-3 minutes until they reach your preferred tenderness.
  5. Return the onion and garlic to the skillet, combine with cooked rice noodles, and mix well.
  6. Drizzle with the desired amount of sauce, ensuring an even coat on all ingredients. Stir well.

Soft brown sugar pecan cookies make the perfect snack for a casual get-together or an ideal treat when you’re looking for a little something special to satisfy your sweet tooth.

Key Ingredients: Explained

What makes these cookies soWarm, nutty, and filled with the distinctive flavor of pecans, there’s no better way to usher in a cozy evening than with these soft brown sugar pecan butter cookies. Crafted with Ezra Cohen Montreal’s signature pecan butter, these cookies are a delightful blend of sweet, salty, and oh-so-buttery goodness.

Soft brown sugar p unique is Ezra Cohen Montreal’s Pecan Nut Butter. Made from freshly roasted pecans and nothing else, our pecan butter is full of rich, nutty flavor and is all-natural, non-GMO, and gluten- and dairy-free. The pecan butter not only adds a deliciously full-bodied pecan taste but also gives the cookies a soft, moist texture that melts in your mouth.

We pair this pecan butter with brown sugar to create a warm, caramel-like sweetness that enhances the pecans’ richness. The deep flavor of the brown sugar, combined with a hint of vanilla, creates a fragrant, comforting aroma that fills your kitchen while these cookies bake.

Finally, the dough is studded with chopped pecans for added texture and another layer of nutty goodness. These pieces of pecan give a satisfying crunch to every bite and make these cookies with pecans truly stand out.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup of Ezra Cohen Montreal’s Pecan Nut Butter
  • 1/3 cup of brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp of baking powder
  • 1 tsp of cinnamon (optional but recommended)
  • 1/4 tsp of flaky sea salt
  • 1-2 tbsp of milk

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the pecan nut butter, brown sugar, baking powder, vanilla extract, cinnamon, sea salt, and 1 tablespoon of milk. Mix until smooth. The batter may feel too dry to keep holding together. If that is the case, pour in a second tsp of milk.
  3. Scoop up the cookie batter using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop onto the prepared baking sheet. Leave ample space between each cookie since they will spread apart slightly while baking. Expect between 12-14 cookies.
  4. Using a fork, gently press down each cookie.
  5. Bake for 10-11 minutes. The cookies might seem soft and undercooked initially, but they will firm up as they cool.
  6. Allow the cookies to cool off on the baking sheet for at least five minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack for continued cooling.

Please note that you can adjust the sugar to your preference. Also, the cookies can be stored at room temperature in a container for 2-3 days, refrigerated for up to 1 week, or frozen air-tight for up to 3 months.
