Almond Butter!

[bethanieh]

In my efforts to mix things up a little bit more, I bought a food processor! I've been anxiously awaiting its arrival and it finally came yesterday. The first thing I did this morning is make almond butter. I feel so dumb for not purchasing a food processor ages ago because of how easy and delicious this is. I had tried several times to make nut butters with a blender but it always resulted in failure and a huge mess. With the processor I just threw in a bag of roasted and salted almonds (note: it is probably more desirable to buy the nuts raw and roast them yourself- but baby steps for me people). They only needed to process for a few minutes and about halfway through I threw in a lump of coconut oil. I'm not kidding when I say that this shit is delicious. Sweet and salty all in one. YUM
