I love putting a spoonful of almond butter into my afternoon protein shakes, but it’s not always easy to find a brand of almond butter that is flavorful and fresh.
A simple solution is to simply blend your own almond butter at home with very little fuss.
This recipe has 2 scoops of TruLean Protein powder blended into the mix along with some ground cinnamon for optimal flavor and nutrition.
Each serving is a Tablespoon. Enjoy!
3½ cups raw almonds
1½ teaspoons sea salt
2 scoops Frosted Vanilla Cake Protein Powder
1 tablespoon coconut oil
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the almonds over the pan in a single layer. Roast for 10 to 20 minutes, until golden and glossy with oil. Remove from the oven and cool slightly.
Transfer the almonds to a food processor and pulse until chopped. Blend for a full minute. Scrape down the sides. Process for another full minute and then scrape down the sides two more times.
Add the remaining ingredients to the food processor. Process for 1 to 2 more minutes until creamy. Store in a glass jar in the fridge. Enjoy!
