RAW ALMOND BUTTER

Homemade almond butter is a great alternative to peanut butter (its even better for you!). It takes about 20 minutes and only  3 ingredients!!!

BENEFITS:

• regulates blood sugar

• lowers a risk of a heart attack

• reduce bad cholesterol

• has monounsaturated fats 

• offers antioxidant action from Vitamin E

• helps lower the risk of developing gallstones

• source of the minerals manganese and copper as well as Vitamin B2, or riboflavin, all of which are necessary for energy production.

INGREDIENTS:

• almonds
• coconut oil
• pinch of salt

(You can add cinnamon, honey or vanilla for flavoring)

Add almonds to blender or food processor and blend (be patient).

If your almonds look like this...blend more.

More...don't forget to add salt and coconut oil (or any flavouring you like). You may need to scrape down the sides and keep blending until the almond butter reaches your desired degree of smoothness.

I like it pretty smooth, so it looks something like this.

Serve with anything you like.

I like it with rice cakes and toasted sesame seeds on top, sometimes I add it to smoothies, oatmeal or fruits.
