This Almond & Ginger Nut Butter makes a delicious addition to smoothie bowls, cereals, porridge and toasts. Sweeten it to taste with agave or maple syrup.
This nut butter will keep in the fridge in an airtight container for a week. Make sure you get it to room temperature before using it as otherwise, it will be difficult to spread.
Making nut butter is quite amazing to watch. The nuts transform themselves into a thick paste before blending into a smooth butter. You can use a blender or food processor but I find that a food processor works best as there is more space in the bowl so you do not have to switch it on and off and scrape the sides as you do with a blender.
