Ingredients

  • 2 ¼ cups (16oz) raw almonds
  • 3-4 teaspoons avocado oil, olive oil, or grapeseed oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons honey

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Spread almonds in an even layer on a baking pan. Bake in oven for 10 minutes. Allow almonds to cool a few minutes and then transfer to a food processor or high speed blender.
  • Process or blend almonds until a paste start to form. The almonds will go from almond chunks, to almond meal, to finally a paste. Stop and scrape down the sides when needed. This process can take some time, but it will happen! Add your oil and process until paste starts to become creamy. Add your honey and salt and process until desired creaminess is achieved.
  • Recipe will yield 16 ounces. Store in an airtight jar or container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. Stir to reincorporate before each use.

Notes

  • If you are worried about cross-contamination, avoid buying nuts from bulk-bins.
  • Be prepared to stop the food processor every so often to scrape down the sides of the bowl. 
  • While optional, adding a neutral oil can help speed up processing time and results in a creamier butter.
  • This homemade almond butter recipe will have natural oil separation when stored. Stir it well before use.
