Equipment

  • Vitamix or High Speed Blender

Ingredients

  • 4 cups raw almonds
  • salt optional

Instructions

  • Roast the almonds. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Spread the almonds onto baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 13-15 minutes. Remove and let cool to room temperature.
  • Blend. Place the almonds into the Vitamix, snap on the lid and place the tamper into the lid. Blend on the highest speed using the tamper to help push the almonds down into the blades. Blend until smooth and creamy, about 1-2 minutes. If using salt, add ½ teaspoon at a time until you achieve your desired taste.
  • Store. Pour into a container, cover and store in the refrigerator.
