Pictured above is an Almond Butter recipe that also includes figs (for added sweetness) and cinnamon (for flavor) by @cookathomemom, If you prefer something a little more basic, here's our favorite go-to recipe:
feedfeed Almond Butter
3 cups raw almonds
2-3 tablespoons coconut oil (or neutral oil of choice)
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Preheat over to 350˚ F. Spread almonds on a rimmed baking sheet and toast until fragrant, about 8-10 minutes. Set aside to cool.
Add almonds to food processor (with metal blade) or vitamix and process for about 2 minutes. The almonds will start to look sort of like brown sugar. At this point add salt and oil one tablespoon at time, processing until the mixture becomes smooth, about 10-12 minutes. If you'd like the butter to be thinner, you can add more oil, a tablespoon at a time until you reach the desired consistency.
Almonds not your thing? We've got recipes for all kinds of nut butters on our feed including cashew, hazelnut and even macadamia!
