Cómo preparar Almond Flax Butter
- **Blanch Almonds (If Needed):** If your almonds have skins, place 1 cup of almonds in a small saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 2 minutes.
- **Peel Almonds:** Drain the almonds in a colander and rinse under cold water. Gently pinch the base of each almond to remove the skin.
- **Dry Almonds:** Pat the almonds completely dry with a clean kitchen towel.
- **Grind Almonds:** Add the dried almonds to a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Process until a fine meal forms.
- **Add Flaxseed Meal & Oil:** Add 1/4 cup flaxseed meal and 1/4 cup olive oil (or your preferred oil). Process, scraping down the sides as needed, until the mixture starts to come together.
- **Blend to Creamy Perfection:** Continue processing, adding olive oil one tablespoon at a time, until you reach your desired creamy consistency (approximately 1/4 - 1/2 cup total oil).
- **Season & Store:** Add 1/2 teaspoon of sea salt (or to taste). Transfer the almond flax butter to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld. Enjoy!
- **Optional additions:** For extra flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of maple syrup or a dash of vanilla extract.
