Ingredients
  • 2 c. whole raw almonds
  • ½ t. salt (optional)
Instructions
  1. Raw almond butter - Pour two ** cups of almonds into food processor. Pulse until small chunks. Turn on food processor full speed for 10- 15 minutes, checking after 10 for consistency. Scrape down sides with rubber spatula every 5 minutes or so. For more paste-like nut butter, stop at about 12-13 minutes, for creamier, oilier butter, keep going to 15 minutes.
  2. Roasted almond butter -Preheat oven to 350ยบ. Place two cups of raw almonds in single layer on baking sheet. Roast in oven for 13-15 minutes or until golden brown and you can smell them. Process like above. Should take a few less minutes to process.
  3. Store in jars or plastic containers. Will store out of refrigeration for one week, 3 months in the refrigerator and six months in the freezer.
  4. **For powerful food processors like Cuisinart, use 2 cups, for less powerful ones, use one and make in two batches. Each food processor will produce different time results so check often for desired consistency
