This garlic scape pesto recipe is a delicious way to enjoy the flavors of early summer! With fresh basil and mild garlic flavors, it is sure to become one of your favorite pesto recipes!
Trim the scapes just below the flower bud and discard. Give the scapes a rough chop to make them easier to combine in the food processor.
Add the trimmed scapes, basil leaves, and salt to the bowl of a food processor and pulse a few times to create a rough mixture.
Then add the parmesan cheese and olive oil, pulse a few more times to gently combine. Use the spatula to scrape the sides of the bowl and stir in the pine nuts. Pulse again just to combine.
