Ingredients

2-3 cups roasted or unroasted almonds 

Instructions

Once roasted add the almonds in a food processor. Secure the lid and allow to process for 5 minutes.You will begin to see the almonds turn into a crumbly dry crumb; scrape the sides and continue to process for another 3-5 minutes. The almonds should then turn into a rough butter which is not fully ready yet. Scrape the sides and process for another 3-5 minutes or until the desire consistency is reached. For creamier alomnd butter, process longer.

Transfer the almond butter to a sealed glass jar, and store in the fridge or in pantry.The Almond butter will last 2-3 months.

Tips & Tricks: How to Pick Healthy Honey?
When it comes to buying honey you’ll likely see two kinds. Often, you’ll only notice a difference in color. The honey that you’re looking for when it comes to health benefits is generally going to be darker in color. You also want to make sure you’re buying pure honey, not products that are part honey with added corn syrup, sugar or food coloring.
#local honey is always better honey #helps to strengthen your immune system
