Instructions
- Place the almonds in a high-powered blender or food processor. Pulse a few times to break them down, then blend on high speed for 1-2 minutes. Stop periodically to scrape down the sides.
- Continue blending until the almonds reach a fine, flour-like texture. Be cautious not to over-process, as this can turn the almond flour into almond butter.
- Transfer the finished almond flour to an airtight storage container. Label it with the date and type of almonds used.
- Store at room temperature for up to 2-3 weeks, or refrigerate/freezer for several months for longer freshness.
