How to Make Amalou Almond Honey Butter

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Spread 2 cups of raw almonds in a single layer on a baking sheet.
  3. Roast for 10-15 minutes, or until lightly browned, tossing halfway through for even cooking.
  4. Let the almonds cool completely.
  5. In a food processor or high-powered blender, combine the roasted almonds, 2 tablespoons of walnut oil, and 1/2 teaspoon of sea salt.
  6. Blend for 8-10 minutes, scraping down the sides as needed, until a smooth, creamy butter forms.
  7. Add 2 tablespoons of honey and blend for an additional 30 seconds to combine thoroughly.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
