Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups raw almonds
- 1 cup freeze-dried strawberries
- 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the raw almonds on a baking sheet in a single layer.
Roast the almonds in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even roasting. Let them cool for a few minutes once out of the oven.
In a food processor, add the roasted almonds. Blend on high for 5-8 minutes, pausing occasionally to scrape down the sides with a spatula. The almonds will go through stages: crushed almond pieces, a dry powder, a thick paste, and eventually a smooth almond butter.
Add the freeze-dried strawberries to the food processor and blend for an additional 1-2 minutes until fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
If desired, add honey for sweetness, salt for flavor balance, and coconut oil for a creamier consistency. Blend for another 30 seconds to combine.
Transfer the strawberry almond butter to a clean, airtight jar and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Enjoy as a spread on toast, a topping for oatmeal, or as a dip for fresh fruit!
