Preparation
Chef’s notes
Sometimes I add 1/2 cup of honey roasted peanuts to the mixture so there is a slight honey-roasted taste to my almond butter. That’s optional.
Salted Maple Flavor:
I love turning this into salted maple almond butter. Toss the 3 cups (400g) of whole almonds with 1/3 cup (80ml) pure maple syrup and 1 Tablespoon melted coconut oil. Spread onto a lined baking sheet and bake at 300°F (149°C) for 15 minutes, tossing halfway through. Cool for 20 minutes, and then grind them into almond butter using the instructions above. Once finished, stir in 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract and a sprinkle of sea salt.
