What I love about this recipe is the big flavor that’s brought out by roasting the almonds first. It brings out the sweetness and nuttiness flavor making it a bit more savory. The second thing I love is that you can customize the added sweetness and flavor levels by using Soviia agave. Since there are over 10+ different flavors and agave has a super low GI, its the perfect “sweet treat” addition. My favorite flavors for making roasted almond butter is the Soviia coconut and Soviia vanilla.
Making your own almond butter takes less time than you might think and here are 4 reasons why you should do it.
1. It tastes amazing
2. It’s economical
3. It’s totally customizable
4. It makes great DIY gifts

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350. Lay the raw almonds onto the baking sheet and back for about 15 minutes. You will be able to smell the almonds go through the roasting process but be careful they don't burn. You have to watch them!
- Take the roasted almonds out of the oven and transfer them to another baking sheet. They need to cool completely which can take up to an hour. The cool thing here is that you will start to hear popping sounds as the almonds cool down.
- Add the almonds to a food processor and pulse for about 5 minutes.
- Keep pulsing.....
- Once the almonds start to break down and look like cream add the EVOO, salt and agave.
- I like making small batches at a time and I like creamy. Repurpose small jars to store the freshly made almond butter.
- Enjoy!
