Ingredients:

Make Your Own Almond Butter!

Nut butters are one of my favourite foods. Seriously, half a pot could be gone in 24 hours! They are a nutritious, filling and a great addition to many meal.

They are generally quite expensive to buy, especially the organic nut butters that I love to get. So I wanted to create a recipe that you can make easily and efficiently at home that doesn't break the bank! My ultimate favourite nut butter is Almond! So here is my recipe for Almond Butter...

The only thing you need to purchase is almonds! There is two stages to making the almond butter and they can be done on totally different days if you want, the first stage makes the roasted salted almonds (great addition to meals) and then the second stage makes them into the butter we know and love!

Almond Butter Biscuits

Nut butters are just heaven (apart from peanut, sorry). If you are like me I could go through a pot of almond butter in a couple of days! I kept seeing peanut biscuit recipes everywhere, but as I do not like the taste of peanuts I thought almond butter would be unbelievable in a cookie!! Sweet and packed with protein!

So I experimented and came up with a recipe I am proud of and so happy to share with all of you!
