How You’ll Make It
- Roast the Almonds (Optional for More Flavor): Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the almonds on a baking sheet and roast for 10-12 minutes, stirring halfway through. Let cool slightly.
- Blend It Up: Add the almonds to a food processor or high-speed blender. Process for 8-12 minutes, stopping every couple of minutes to scrape down the sides.
- Patience is Key: First, the almonds will turn into crumbs. Then, they’ll clump into a dough-like ball. Finally, they’ll transform into smooth, creamy almond butter!
- Optional Add-Ins: Add 1-2 tablespoons of oil for extra creaminess. Mix in a pinch of salt for flavor. Sweeten with 1 teaspoon of maple syrup or honey (optional).
- Store and Enjoy: Transfer to a clean jar and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks.
Tips:
- Use roasted almonds for a deeper flavor, or raw almonds for a milder taste.
- Avoid adding liquid sweeteners (like maple syrup) if you want a super smooth consistency.
