Macadamia Nut Recipes

  • Raw Macadamia Slice
  • Chunky Macadamia and White Chocolate Cookies

The Macadamia nut, also known as Queensland nut or Bauple nut is native to the rainforests of southern Queensland and northern New South Wales.  There are two species with edible nuts – Macadamia tetraphylla and Macadamia integrifolia. Macadamia trees grow in deep soils and like some wind protection. Trees can grow to 10m, but dwarf varieties are available.

Macadamia nuts are a good source of protein, vitamins – especially B1, minerals and monounsaturated fats.
