How to Make Almond Butter Dairy Free

  1. Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). If using raw almonds, spread them on a baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes, or until lightly golden and fragrant. Let cool completely.
  2. Add 2 cups roasted or raw almonds and 1/2 teaspoon sea salt to a food processor.
  3. Process until the almonds are finely ground, scraping down the sides as needed. This should take about 1-2 minutes.
  4. With the food processor running, slowly drizzle in 1-2 tablespoons of your preferred oil (e.g., olive oil, avocado oil).
  5. Continue processing, scraping down the sides, until the almond butter reaches your desired consistency. Add more oil, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed to reach desired smoothness.
  6. For a chunky almond butter, stir in 1/4 cup of roughly chopped almonds.
  7. Transfer the almond butter to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
