Easy Homemade Almond Butters

Almond Butter is becoming more and more popular! Here at JQ Fitness we LUV us some Almond Butter! It’s a great spread on fruits, a dip for celery and a great addition to some of your healthy baking ideas like those Pumpkin Bars I posted about yesterday (Check out the recipe right here if you missed it!) - which by the way were so totally delicious, and healthy to boot!

While it's becoming easier to find in grocery stores – it's always great to have a way to make it at home so that you know exactly what's going into your Almond Butter. You can control the amounts of added ingredients or simply make it straight up out of almonds! (Or really any other kind of nut that you wish to – mmm cashews!)

Check out this simple almond butter recipe down below! (note: timing is sort of unclear as I've heard mixed reports, but I think it takes around 20 minutes - so patience is indeed a virtue here!)

Doesn’t that look so yummy!?

Here are some other recipes for almond butter that you could try out (personally I think that vanilla cinnamon almond butter looks to die for!)
