Ingredients
- 4 cups (410 g) blanched almonds, no skin
Directions
- Place almonds into the Food Processor Work Bowl fitted with the Multi-Use Blade and secure the lid.
- Start the machine and allow to process for 45 seconds, or set timer for 45 seconds and allow machine to complete the programmed cycle. Chill completely before using.
Ingredients
- 2 cups (286 g) raw almonds [or blanched sliced almonds], no skin
Directions
- Place all ingredients into the Vitamix container in the order listed and secure the lid.
- Start the blender on its lowest speed, then quickly increase to its highest speed. Blend for 5-7 seconds, then quickly stop the machine.
- Remove the lid and scrape the sides of the container with a spatula. Repeat the same process until desired consistency is achieved.
Chef's Notes
- A finely ground almond meal is a great baking substitute if you need a light, gluten-free and protein-filled flour. Almond flour with a coarser grind may be used as a breading, binder, or wherever a coarsely ground flour is needed - just be careful when cooking it, as it will burn more easily than other flours.
