Almond Butter
Ingredients
– 2 cups of organic almonds
This is how you prepare it at home:
1) Pre heat the oven at 200ºC (fan up and down)
2) Cover the oven tray with oven paper
3) Put the almonds in the tray and bake for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven when they are ready and let them cool.
4) Blend in a food processor for 15 minutes until smooth. It might be that you need a little bit more time depending on the texture of the almonds. During this process, you will need to stop at least 2 times so that you mix the almond butter with a spatula, so you make sure it blends nicely together. (If you do not have a food processor, then you can use a blender, but it might take a little bit longer this way. Remember to stop every 5 minutes to cool down to prevent it from overheating).
5) When ready, transfer it to a glass bootle with lid and refrigerate.
It will remain in perfect conditions for 1 month in your refrigerator 🙂
Enjoy!
