Ingredients

2 cup 2 cup 2 cup Almonds, I use raw, unsalted
1 Tbsp 1 Tbsp 1 Tbsp Vanilla Extract
1 Tbsp 1 Tbsp 1 Tbsp Cacao Powder, Raw
1 tsp 1 tsp 1 tsp Cinnamon, ground
0.25 tsp 0.25 tsp 0.25 tsp Nutmeg, ground
0.25 tsp 0.25 tsp 0.25 tsp Cloves, ground
0.25 tsp 0.25 tsp 0.25 tsp Cardamom Seed, ground
0.5 tsp 0.5 tsp 0.5 tsp Sea Salt

Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Preheat your oven to 175’C (350’F)
Line a large baking sheet with baking/parchment paper (or a non stick silpat mat) and pour on your almonds, making sure they are spread evenly – aka not crowded.
Roast your almonds for 10 minutes, until lightly toasted and deliciously golden.
Pour your roasted almonds into the bowl of your food processor or blender and process until smooth and creamy (or your desired consistency). Initially the almonds wil grind down into a powder, give it a minute or two and the oils will extract and it will become deliciously, thick, rich and creamy. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides of the bowl occasionally.
Once you have blended to your desired consistency, add your vanilla, cacao, salt and spices then process until well combined.
Taste and adjust seasoning accordingly – add a little extra salt or more vanilla/cinnamon/spices if you feel the need and, if you prefer a thinner/more runny consistency feel free to add a drizzle of coconut oil to thin it out.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge. It should keep well for up to 2 weeks – if it lasts that long! (← seriously, good luck with that 😉
Enjoy xoxo
