Yummy Almond Butter With 3 Variations - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 1/3 cups almonds (skin on)
1/16 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons oil (a neutral one like sunflower or salad)
For Vanilla Cocoa Almond Butter
1/2 teaspoon cocoa powder (unsweetened, good quality)
3/8 teaspoon ground vanilla bean
For Vanilla Almond Butter
3/8 teaspoon ground vanilla bean
For Cinnamon Almond Butter
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Preparation

Heat a skillet over medium heat.
Meanwhile place almonds in a food processor and chop finely.
Place almond pieces in the skillet and dry toast for about 5 minutes. The almonds should smell roasty and have a slightly golden brown colour.
Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
Place almonds, oil and salt in a food processor and process into a thick paste. You can also use an immersion blender for this.
If you like your almond butter less thick, just add a little more oil or water until you reach the desired consistency.
Now add in the flavourings of your choice. Mix them in well with a spoon.
Enjoy!
