This is an easy way to make your own spread and it is super healthy because there are no added hydrogenated fats, preservatives, sugars or high fructose corn syrup. Usually we buy the grind-it-yourself peanut butter at Whole Foods, but we ran out the other day and we had a surplus of nuts in the pantry. I decided to whip up some Almond Butter and it is so simple and satisfying.
Blend until a "butter" in a food processor:
2 cups raw almonds (I prefer unsalted)
1/2 cup water
3 tablespoons sunflower or safflower oil
You can alter the consistency by altering the oil or water. Store in a glass jar (bonus- less packaging) in the refrigerator.
