It seems I always have a jar of either peanut butter or almond butter in the fridge. It’s great to have on hand for shakes, toast, or even almond butter pancakes!

Though there are some amazing store bought choices, if you have a food processor, the best almond butter is always home made.

And all you need is almonds. Well, that, and a few spices to spruce up the flavor (:

Ingredients:

2 cups raw almonds
A pinch of kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1. Roast almonds on a baking sheet at 350F for 6 minutes.
2. Place roasted almonds, salt, and cinnamon in a food processor.
3. Blend for 11-15 minutes, stopping once or twice to scrape down the sides of the bowl to ensure all the almonds get incorporated.
4. Store in an airtight container or jar for up to 3 weeks in the fridge.
