Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups organic raw European almonds
- 1.5 tbsp virgin coconut oil
- 2 tbsp cocoa powder or raw cacao powder
- ? cup + 1 tbsp coconut sugar
- ¼ tsp fine sea salt
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F and spread the almonds onto a baking sheet. Roast the almonds for 10-15 minutes, or until lightly browned and fragrant. Cool on baking sheet for 15 minutes.

- Stop the motor, remove the lid, and add the coconut oil, cocoa, coconut sugar, sea salt, and vanilla extract. Process for 2-5 minutes more, until the nut butter is silky smooth.
