To start, make walnut butter paste in the food processor. Put the walnuts in the food processor and blend. At first it will become crumbly and look sort of like ground walnuts, but continue to blend, stopping along the way to scrape the sides, until it is a thick, nut butter paste-like consistency. It will be a little thicker than store-bought almond butter. Once you have the walnut paste, add all of the remaining ingredients to the food processor and blend.
Line a mini muffin tin with liners. I like to use silicone mini muffin linerswhich makes it easier to remove the muffin from the liner once it’s done. Make a ball the size of the mini muffin cup and put it in the liner. Bake at 350°F (180°C, or gas mark 4) for about 10 to 15 minutes or until firm.
