Ingredients
- 2 cups raw almonds
Instructions
- Prepare almonds: Measure 2 cups of raw almonds to ensure the right quantity for blending.
- Blend almonds: Place the almonds in a high-powered blender or food processor. Blend continuously until the almonds break down releasing their natural oils, forming a smooth and creamy almond butter. This may take about 10-15 minutes, scraping down the sides occasionally to ensure even blending.
- Store almond butter: Transfer the freshly made almond butter into an airtight container or jar. Seal tightly to maintain freshness and store at room temperature for up to two weeks or refrigerate for longer shelf life.
Notes
- Use a high-powered blender or food processor for best results.
- For creamier texture, blend longer and add a small amount of oil if necessary.
- Optionally, lightly toast almonds before blending for enhanced flavor.
- Store almond butter in airtight containers to prevent spoilage.
