How to Make Yummy Almond Butter With 3 Variations
- Heat a medium skillet over medium heat.
- While the skillet heats, finely chop 1 cup of raw almonds in a food processor.
- Add the chopped almonds to the skillet and dry toast for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant and lightly golden brown.
- Remove from heat and let the almonds cool slightly (about 5 minutes).
- Transfer the toasted almonds, 2 tablespoons of your favorite oil (e.g., olive oil or almond oil), and 1/4 teaspoon of sea salt to a food processor.
- Process until a thick paste forms. You can also use an immersion blender for this step.
